Abstract
This report provides background information on the use of build-out analysis and water quality/environmental modeling as land planning and water quality predictive management tools. It also provides information helpful in assessing the utility of certain versions of these tools for use by the Chesapeake Bay Program in meeting the goals set forth in the Chesapeake Bay Agreement and elsewhere. This report provides background information helpful in determining if some form of build-out analysis/water quality modeling methodology exists that could help meet the goals of the Chesapeake Bay Program. It contains summaries of fourteen build-out analyses that have been conducted in various regions of the United States, including the Chesapeake Bay watershed, to predict the character of future landscapes of specific land areas such as watersheds and counties. A number of these analyses also modeled impacts on water quality or other environmental attributes that might result from the predicted changes in landscapes. In addition, the report provides general background information on both build-out analysis and water quality and enviroinmental modeling, including a discussion of the purposes for these types of tools and models, brief descriptions of common versions of each, and alternative ways they can be applied to meet typical objectives.
