2 1. The ScreeningLevel Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment used the term SEGMENT to refer to portions of the river considered for the studies. The current report uses the term REACHES to refer to those same areas. REACHES is considered a more conventional term for referring to river sections. 2. Figure provided by TMACOG.
