ref:US:MA:SARIS is used to include the identifying numbers for rivers and streams in Massachusetts's Stream and River Inventory System. The original list is from 1982, and is available (and searchable!), as a PDF from: https://archives.lib.state.ma.us/handle/2452/833504 . It has been updated and expanded since then, but has not (apparently?) been formally published. When adding values, if not using the 1982 list, please note the source in the changeset comment.

The first two digits define the watershed, so it's nice to separate them from the remaining digits with a space.

Example value

ref:US:MA:SARIS=72 39050 for the Charles River.
