The decision support system for hemispheric transport assessment performs both model to model comparison as well as model to observation comparison.

The reports of analyses are submitted to policy analysts in the hemispheric transport Task Force.

The policy makers decide whether and in what way hemispheric pollutant transport should be included in International Long-Range Transport Protocols.

In case of natural exceptional pollution events, such as forest fire smoke the air quality analysts are typically affiliated with the impacted states.

They submit their reports to the federal EPA as part of their request for exceptional event waivers.

EPA analysts review the requests and make their recommendations to the EPA regulatory decision makers

In this case, the DSS needs to support both state and the federal analysts.
