Look at Figure 13.1. This is a portion of the Topographic Quadrangle map from the USGS. This map scale is 1:24,000 and the contour interval is 5 feet. On this map, color in the portion of the land that will be submerged during an average storm surge of 7 feet. The 5 feet contour and 10 feet contour lines are enhanced on the map so that you can estimate the submerged zone.
