In in the song Green River too which Green River are they preferring. I know theres one in Ky and Tn and also a green river in Washington State and maybe Oregon as well or is it perhaps just entirely ficticious?

It's more of a sensation rather than a location.

Not sure, here's the lyrics:
Well, take me back down where cool water flows, yeah.
Let me remenber the things I don't know,
Stopping at the log where catfish bite,
Walking along the river road at night,
Barefoot girls dancing in the moonlight.
I can hear the bullfrog calling me.
Wonder if my rope's still hanging to the tree.
Love to kick my feet 'way down the shallow water.
Shoefly, dragonfly, get back t'your mother.
Pick up a flat rock, skip it across Green River.
Welllllll!
Up at Cody's camp I spent my days, oh,
With flat car riders and cross-tie walkers
Old Cody, Junior took me over,
Said, "You're gonna find the world is smould'ring.
And if you get lost come on home to Green River."
Welllllll!
Come on home.

maybe it's the Green River Ordinance

It's not specific to any area, just a symbol of the bayou-influenced songs the band put out.
