ERRATA

Please insert the following changes to Bulletin 2INT-MET:

Section 4.2.1, Add the following sentence to the end of the second paragraph:
In shallow water, the local crest height will not, however, exceed the breaking-constrained crest
height.

Table 4.5.2-1A, Replace the title:


West Gulf
with
West Central Gulf

Table 4.5.2-1B, Replace the title:


Western
with
West

Figure 4.5.2-4B, Replace current figure with the following:

West Central Region, N-Year Surge and Tide

Table 4.5.3-1A left-hand column, Replace:

Currents, WD >= 150m

with

Currents, WD >= 500m

Table 4.5.3-1A in the Notes, Replace:

Currents in water depths between 70m and 150m.


with
Currents in water depths between 70m and 500m should be determined from a site-specific
study. If interpolating currents in the areas between the Central region and the West Central or
East regions, the 500m current may be assumed to act at 150m when performing the
interpolation.

Table 4.5.3-1A left-hand column, Replace:

Currents, WD >= 492 ft


with
Currents, WD >= 1640 ft

Table 4.5.3-1B in the Notes, Replace:

Currents in water depths between 230 ft and 492 ft.


with
Currents in water depths between 230 ft and 1640 ft should be determined from a site-specific
study. If interpolating currents in the areas between the Central region and the West Central or
East regions, the 1640 ft current may be assumed to act at 452 ft when performing the
interpolation.

Section 5, Add a 5th paragraph as follows:

Wave periods should be adjusted for the presence of currents. Also, the component of current
collinear with the waves should never be less than 0.1 m/s (0.3 ft/s).
