Briefing paper reporting a September 2014 update to an integrated regional risk assessment for the South River and Upper Shenandoah. It presents Bayesian-network ecological risk analyses (biotic and water-quality endpoints), identifies a northward gradient of elevated risk (notably to smallmouth bass), explores uncertainty (mercury toxicity, temperature), and evaluates management options and monitoring priorities.
