1. The reported outfall

Outfall reported by an operator the record does not name. Location: 41.73503, -71.31901, given in the source record.

2. Waters named in the notice

The notice names: “Brickyard Pond”. We place it on Brickyard Pond, RI. Matched by the name of the water in the source record.
