Approximate
A real place or fact confirmed via an official source, but a specific detail (often exact coordinates) is an estimate, not something that source states outright.
Location, ownership, species list, access rules, and fees directly confirmed via the official Virginia DWR waterbody page. Exact coordinates are this project's own estimate for the reservoir/park area.
