Structured source tables

Signs, units, nulls and ordered rows are retained. Source evidence applies to each whole table; row links do not assert a more precise page location.

Drought/aquifer report

reported observation

Source calls Barton Springs measure water level but gives CFS, a flow unit. Preserve the value/unit rather than interpreting it as a level. No drought-stage action on page 3.
