We understand that in the case of the MRL design/analysis, USACE did not follow the same procedures that were used to design other parts of the HSDRRS. For example, it is our understanding that in all other perimeter parts of the HSDRRS, waves were applied simultaneously with maximum surge height, and they were applied perpendicular to the levee/structure. No attempt was made to link wave direction to wind direction and the temporal aspects of surge height. -Bob Turner SLFPA-E STORM 001 Slide 7 Slide 7
