all measurements must be suspect. The speed data are summarized in Table E-l 

 for comparison with other sites. The horizontal kinetic energy of 50,95 

 dynes/sec and 10% highest speeds of 21.6 cm/sec are higher than both Portland 

 and Boston Foul Ground indicating that even though the tether was fouled, the 

 meter was responding to the current flow. These are suprisingly high values 

 and might indicate that the sard material on the top of the spoil mound is 

 subject to motion, particularly during periods of high wave action.
