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, hours, and the no-license-from-the-pier exemption were directly confirmed via the official York County facility page. Species/seasonal notes come from tourism-site sources (Visit York County, Williamsburg Tourism Council), not the county page itself, and have not been individually checked further. Exact coordinates are this project's own estimate for the Water Street address.
