The nature of a peer review is often to find the faults with the model and its application that the agencies could or should fix. However, at the outset, the Review Team would like to compliment the IHM program developers and those applying it to the INTB region. The Review Team feels that the INTB model was extremely well conceived, that the model made good use of the tremendous amount of available data, and that the final model was well calibrated. The Review Team congratulates everyone involved and believes that the model is well capable of handling the range of proposed applications within the limits of the model program and INTB model development.
