Beach Evaluation Program, January - March 1968 
Urban, H. D., and Galvin, C. J., Jr., MP 3-69 
Publication Date: September 1969 
Location: Five beaches on the New Jersey and Long Island 
coasts as follows: Westhampton Beach, N. Y.3;

Atlantic City, N. J.; and Ludlam Island, N. J. 
Period of Coverage: December 1967 to May 1968 
Contents: This publication is intended to present beach erosion and accretion 
data for the specified locations using pipe profiling techniques. Measured 
sand elevations at pipes for each of the five beaches are tabulated with the 
dates of observation and are shown in Appendix A. 
The visually observed wave data are given for seven sites: the previous 
five mentioned, plus Plum Island, Mass., and Misquamicut, R. I. A wave height 
histogram for each site is given in Figure 11. The visual wave observations 
include date and time recorded, period, height, direction, type wave, and 
remarks.
