About 15 to 30 minutes was required to survey each profile line, depending 

 on its length and accessibility. Distances (to the nearest foot) and elevations 

 (to the nearest tenth of a foot) were recorded for points every 25 or 50 feet, 

 and at breaks in slope.. At the seaward end of the line, measurements were taken 

 by a rodman attempting to wade into the surf zone to the -2 -foot MSL elevation 

 (Fig. 20). This attempt was affected by the wave conditions, wind, tidal stage, 

 and temperature. When possible, surveys were done at low tide.
