Where are the buffers in a polyline feature?

Table Buffer Attributes 1: Attribute table with different buffer distances to rivers based on information about the adjacent land use. Buffers around polyline features, such as rivers or roads, do not have to be on both sides of the lines. They can be on either the left side or the right side of the line feature.

What are the two areas of buffering called?
