Abstract
The report summarizes and intercompares the details of five major regulatory cases for which guidance provided in the 'Interim Procedures for Evaluating Air Quality Models' was implemented in evaluating candidate models. In two of the cases the evaluations have been completed and the appropriate model has been determined. In three cases the data base collection and/or the final analysis has not yet been completed. The purpose of the report is to provide potential users of the Interim Procedures with a description and analysis of several applications that have taken place. With this information in mind the user should be able to: (1) more effectively implement the procedures since some of the pitfalls experienced by the initial pioneers can now be avoided; and (2) design innovative technical criteria and statistical techniques that will advance the state of the science of model evaluation.
