| E9-29218 | ICLUS SERGoM v3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for Modeling U.S. Housing Density Growth | Notice | EPA is announcing a 30-day public comment period for the draft tool and its documentation titled, "ICLUS SERGoM v3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for Modeling US Housing Density Growth" (EPA/600/R-09/143). The tool and its documentation were prepared by the National Center for Environmental Assessment within EPA's Office of Research and Development. This draft tool and its documentation can be used to vary housing density and other allocation assumptions used to run land use scenarios for the conterminous US. ICLUS stands for Integrated Climate and Land Use Scenarios, a project which is described in the 2009 EPA Report, "Land- Use Scenarios: Nation-Scale Housing-Density Scenarios Consistent with Climate Change Storylines." These scenarios are broadly consistent with global-scale, peer-reviewed storylines of population growth and economic development, which are used by climate change modelers to develop projections of future climate. SERGoM is the Spatially Explicit Growth Model used to allocate housing on the landscape in the GIS environment. This tool and User's Guide enable users to run SERGoM with the population projections developed for the ICLUS project and allow users to modify the spatial allocation of housing density across the landscape. The public comment period and the external peer usability review, which will occur after the public comment period, are separate processes that provide opportunities for all interested parties to comment on the document. EPA intends to forward the public comments that are submitted in accordance with this notice to the external peer reviewers prior to their review for their consideration. When finalizing the draft document, EPA intends to consider any public comments that EPA receives in accordance with this notice. EPA is releasing this draft tool and its documentation solely for the purpose of pre-dissemination peer review under applicable information quality guidelines. This tool and its documentation have not been formally disseminated by EPA. It does not represent and should not be construed to represent any Agency policy or determination. | 2009-12-08 | 2009 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2009/12/08/E9-29218/iclus-sergom-v3-users-manual-arcgis-tools-and-datasets-for-modeling-us-housing-density-growth | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2009-12-08/pdf/E9-29218.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | EPA is announcing a 30-day public comment period for the draft tool and its documentation titled, "ICLUS SERGoM v3 User's Manual: ArcGIS Tools and Datasets for Modeling US Housing Density Growth" (EPA/600/R-09/143).
