Engineers (Engineer Research and
Development Center): U.S. Department
of Agriculture (Agricultural Research
Service); U.S. Department of Agriculture
(Natural Resources Conservation
Service); U.S. Department of Energy
(Office of Biological and Environmental
Research); U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency; U.S. Geological
Survey; U.S. National Oceanographic
and Atmosphere Administration; and
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research);
U.S. Bureau of Reclamation. These
agencies are cooperating and
coordinating in the research and
development (R&D) of multimedia
environmental models, software and
related databases, including
development, enhancements,
applications and assessments of site
specific, generic, and process-oriented
multimedia environmental models as
they pertain to human and
environmental health risk assessment.
Multimedia model development and
simulation supports interagency
interests in risk assessment, uncertainty
analyses, water supply issues and
contaminant transport. This MOU was
just renewed by member agencies
ensuring another 5 years of continuing
collaboration and cooperation among
the participating agencies in these areas.
Purpose of the Public Meeting: The
annual public meeting provides an
opportunity for the scientific
community, other Federal and State
agencies, and the public to be briefed on
ISCMEM activities and their initiatives
for the upcoming year, and to discuss
technological advancements in
multimedia environmental modeling.
Proposed Agenda: The ISCMEM Chair
will open the meeting with a brief
overview of the goals of the MOU, the
activities of ISCMEM and changes in
organizational operations as a result of
the revised and renewed ISCMEM
MOU. This introduction will be
followed by series of invited
presentations throughout the morning
session focusing on topics of mutual
interest to ISCMEM participants. The
afternoon session will be largely
devoted to discussing future goals and
projects that will set the stage for
collaborative interactions among
ISCMEM participating agencies for the
next 5 years. A detailed agenda with
presentation titles and speakers will be
posted on the MOU public Web site:
