This file lists typical Curve Number values for different land use types.

The SCS curve number is a function of the soil’s permeability, land use and antecedent soil water conditions. Typical curve numbers for moisture condition II are listed in the following tables for various land covers and soil types (SCS Engineering Division, 1986). These values are appropriate for a 5% slope.
