SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: Federal agencies have
been cooperating since 2001 under a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
on the research and development of
multimedia environmental models.
(please see: https://my.usgs.gov/
confluence/display/cdi/Interagency+
Collaborative+for+Environmental+
Modeling+and+Monitoring). The MOU,
revised and reaffirmed in 2016,
establishes a framework for facilitating
cooperation and coordination among six
agencies (the specific research
organization within the agency is in
parentheses):
• National Science Foundation;
• U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(Engineer Research and Development
Center);
• U.S. Department of Energy (Office
of Biological and Environmental
Research);
• U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (Office of Research and
Development);
• U.S. Geological Survey; and
• U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (Office of Nuclear
Regulatory Research).
These agencies are cooperating and
coordinating in the research and
development of multimedia
environmental models, software, and
related databases. Model development
and simulation supports interagency

interests in human and environmental
health risk assessment, uncertainty
analyses, water supply issues, and
contaminant transport.
Purpose of the Public Meeting: The
MOU calls for an annual public meeting
to provide an opportunity for other
Federal and State agencies, the scientific
community, and the public to be briefed
on ICEMM activities and initiatives and
to discuss technological advancements
in multimedia environmental modeling.
Proposed Agenda: This year’s ICEMM
public meeting will be a workshop
focusing on modeling and monitoring
data fusion. The ICEMM Chair will open
the meeting with an overview of the
goals of the MOU and current activities
of ICEMM, followed by a series of
presentations on collaborative modeling
and monitoring efforts by ICEMM and
invited speakers. During the morning of
the second day, the ICEMM agencies
will discuss their programs addressing
modeling and monitoring data fusion.
During the afternoon of the second day,
the chairs of the ICEMM Workgroups
will discuss their activities and plans
for fiscal years 2018 and 2019.
Meeting Access: The meeting will be
available for onsite attendance or
remotely through Web Meeting Services.
To obtain onsite or web access, all
interested attendees must pre-register by
providing their full contact information
and affiliation. (See FOR FURTHER
