The illustration of material flows along a transportation network provides DOE program sponsors with a new method of communicating the potential impacts of various waste management scenarios. While the method combines the outputs of other tools utilized to evaluate system impacts, it also must be utilized with an appropriate amount of caution. Routes projected by the HIGHWAY and INTERLINE models are mathematical simulations of carrier transport and are not intended to explicitly define the actual routes. Determination of the actual routes will depend upon facility operational constraints such as construction, road conditions, weather, and constraints imposed by federal, state and local governments. Routes will thus be selected at the time the shipment is being scheduled by the shipper and carrier. Within the limitations of the available input data, the flow density diagrams graphically depict possible traffic impacts for a given scenario. This information allows identification of affected states or regions and can provide an assessment of the relative influence of this traffic upon the highway and railway networks.
