Table V-1. Recommended tidal-water designated uses by Chesapeake Bay Program segment and state-adopted sub- 
segment. Updated version of Table IV-3 originally published on pages 62-63 of the 2003 Technical Support Document for 
Identification of Chesapeake Bay Designated Uses and Attainability (U.S. EPA 2003b). The asterisks (*) indicate that no 
numerical SAV restoration acreage goal was published in 2003 for the shallow-water designated use of that segment. 
See,Table V-2 for the nine new segment numerical SAV restoration averages. The absence of an "X" in the shallow-water 
designated-use column indicates that segment has been entirely delineated as an SAV no-grow zone and the shallow- 
water bay grass designated use should not apply to that segment.
