The upstream and derived-output licenses are recorded separately. A hash detects a changed mutable download; it does not by itself preserve unavailable upstream bytes.

Four-tier flammability rating (Low / Medium / High / Extreme) for ~200 North Carolina natives, by growth form with habitat columns. Verdict map: Low = recommend, Medium = mixed, High and Extreme = avoid.

The root of all NC ratings, including (near-certainly) the Plant Toolbox, whose signature four-value scale this document originated. National Fire Plan funded. Agency copy retired; town mirrors persist.
