  "field": "Environment",
  "definition": "Portion of the hazardous substance migration path from the probable point of entry (PPE) to the target distance limit. For tidally - influenced rivers, the in - water segment may include portions of surface water bodies upstream from the PPE to the extent that the in - water migration path is reversed by tides. For contaminated sediments with no identified source, the in - water segment begins at the upstream boundary (for streams and rivers) or center of the area of contaminated sediments (for water bodies with no direction of flow).",
