Multiple contour intervals on one surface?

I have a surface with elevation ranges from 500.00' to 525.00'. I need to show 2' contours as well as the 515.00' contour. Is there a way to add a contour to the surface while keeping the 2' interval?

Surface Properties > Anaylisis Tab > Analysis Type: User-defined contours > Ranges: Enter # of user contours you'll have.

 

Press the down arrow next to ranges to push it to bottom > Enter Elevation 515 in "range details" apply.

 

Then to edit Surface Style in use > Display Tab > Turn on "User Defined Contours"

Make the 515' contour a User Defined Contour.

 

In the Surface Style, turn on User Contours (Display tab.)

 

 

In the Surface Properties, go to Analysis tab, set Analysis type to User-defined contours, set number of ranges to 1, press the down arrow, and in the table change the elevation to 515.
