I created a new surface using a Feature Line. The surface was generate with 3:1 slopes for both cut & fill. Is there a way to change the slopes from 3:1 to 2:1 without having to delete and re-create my surface?

You need to provide more information so that we can help you. How did you use this featureline to create a surface - is it a breakline, or did you add a grading object to the FL?

I created my feature line and set the elevations at all the end points. I then used the Grading Creation Tools to create my surface by setting my target to my existing ground surface, selected my grading criteria set and then selecting create grading. I then selected my feature line and it created my new surface.
Select the grading object, right-click and use the Grading Editor option. If you find that the slope you want to edit is locked then you may have to go back to the Grading Creation toolbar and edit the criteria to unlock it.

Thank you for the quick replies. I tried that but Grading Editor option wasn't there. I found though in the Grading Creation Tools that there is an Edit Grading button next to the Create Grading. This allowed me to change my slopes. I wouldn't have looked there if you hadn't mentioned going back to the Grading Creation Tools. Thank you for your help.

No problem. Selecting the actual grading object can sometimes be a problem, as it's often buried under featurelines and the surfaces it creates. One of my best practice recommendations is that you edit your grading style so that the center marker is always displayed as a percentage of screen, and on a no-plot layer. That way you can locate and select grading objects which might not be easy to find otherwise.
