and
liti
po
cal subdivisions)
4. Region or sector
(Coordinates of limits of sector)
(Plans showing sector; reference to general key map, Figure IV-
(Sectors, preferably not exceeding 9 in number, should be
based on clear divisions between different types of coastal terrain;
major objectives preferably should be near the centers of sectors rather
than at their limits; sectors should be limited by prominent geographic
features such as major headlands; sector limits should have distinctive
names, not names repeated elsewhere on the coast.)
General statement. (Brief summary of hydrography, coast, terrain backing
coast, coastal divisions within sector, number and approximate location
of described beaches. If sector is too varied to be summarized without
subdivisions, general statement may be confined to features common to
whole sector, coastal divisions, within sector, and number and approximate
location of described beaches.)
A. Single island or major division of coast: first segment or
minor division (if detailed break-down is warranted).
(Coordinates of limits of division)
(Plans of division; U.S.H.O. charts of division)
(Divisions should be selected according to same general
principles used in selecting sectors.)
General statement. (Brief description of general characteristics
of this division of coast; very brief if covered adequately in
general statement under topic heading.)
(1) Coast. (Progressing along coast, give for each part of
coast a brief statement of offshore approach and shore features, followed
by more complete description of coastal terrain. Avoid duplicating
information which is clearly and correctly conveyed by the Plans (dis-,
tances, shapes and dimensions of bays and islands, spot heights, etc.),
except where such duplication is essential to clear statement. Subdivisions
(a), (b), (c), etc., may be used if needed.)

(If no landing beaches are described, write (None described.)" under

not of coastal segment; length and shape of beach; location
with regard to landmarks and developed areas,)

smaller; describe in greater detail area shoreward of 5-fathom
line; bottom gradient-and character of bottom; locations and
depths of reefs, bars, rocks, shoals, and other dangers;-anchorage

bottom; local use; local weather peculiarities; sources of fresh
water --- potable and nonpotable; areas suitable for landings.)

of beach and inland approximately-5 miles or to first major
barrier; roads, trails, waterways, natural corridors, and cross-
country exits from beach; trafficability; emergency landing places
for aircraft; nearest potable water; nearest radio, telephone,
and telegraph; telephone, telegraph, and power lines; power plants;
railroads; habitations.)
(b), (c), etc. Single beach area (or group of closely related
beaches).
If landing places other than beaches are described, or if descriptions of beach
areas and other landing places are interspersed, use general heading, (2) Land-
ing places, and describe beaches and other landings in sequence along coast
under headings, (a), (b), etc.
(2) Landing places. (E clude general coastal description.)
(a) Single landing place (or group of closely related landing
places).

placer not of coastal segment; lodatioh -With regard to land-
marks and developed areas,)
