<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The watershed boundary has been modified to represent a consistent view of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed with the modified NHDv2.1 Catchments. The catchment and catchment routing data in NHDv2.1 products are utilized to understand flow to the Chesapeake Bay and to assess water quality impacts to the Bay. The areas of land captured in the catchments representing the watershed are outdated due to man-made storm drains and pumping practices. Additionally, the catchments used to represent the Chesapeake Bay Watershed vary depending on how the catchments were selected.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
