1 miramar beach resort and bungalows project 2 - Santa Barbara ...

1 think Errin knows more about this than I do -- it's not
2 a slice in time really. It is a mean over decades,
3 18 years.
4 MR. BIERIG: No, I understand that part, but
5 if it's being calculated by taking the elevation, it's
6 an elevation calculation. That means somewhere out
7 there there is an aerial survey that decided how high
8 the land was at that particular intersect point in the
9 tides.
10 MS. SLUTZKY: Based on 18 years data, though.
11 I know you weren't out there for 18 years, I'm sure.
12 MR. BIERIG: Am I going to believe the data,
13 or am I going to believe my own eyes?
14 MS. SLUTZKY: We do have the 1960 survey.
15 MR. BIERIG: I've dealt with surveys, but I
16 understand the -- maybe I don't understand. I'm still
17 struggling with how that calculates because what I just
18 heard is a theoretical calculation based on two feet
19 above sea level. So they've taken the sea level and
20 they've intersected with the slope of the beach and
21 decided where that happens.
22 MS. SLUTZKY: Yes.
23 MR. BIERIG: And as the beach changes, where
24 is that intersection?
25 MS. SLUTZKY: And that's why they have -- it
