30 year (?) projections of future housing and employment
Four Maryland Regions: Western, Central, Southern, Eastern Shore
Modeling done at “block” scale (from 160 to 922 acres)
What is Forecast Data?
Rule 1: RC provides estimates of both future housing and employment. All models of future land use are executed twice with each predictor acting alone – the average is simply taken at the end
Rule 2:Historical changes in housing and employment from 1990 and 2000 census data are used to provide a background for quantifying magnitude of RC changes.
Converting Forecast Data into Future Land Use – Heuristic Rules
Rule 3: Increases in housing or employment will lead to decreases in forest cover and/or agricultural land use. (currently assumed in equal proportions)
Rule 4: Different urban land uses are added in proportion current urban land use proportions
Rule 5: Measures of everything (e.g. census data, current and future land use/land cover)are disjoint at the county level. Each county acts separately.

Preliminary results show modest NET load changes Preliminary results show moderate GROSS load changes
(~20%, locally higher) Aside: BMPs are thought to mitigate loadings by ~10 to
20% Gross Load Changes are shifted in space so different
watersheds may be significantly affected. Sign (+/-) of loading change:

Positive relationship between degree-days and household energy consumption.
Single-family detached households consume more energy than all other housing types.
Rural areas consume less energy than other locations, all else equal.
Positive relationship between square footage and total household energy consumption.
Efficiency improvements reduce household energy demand.
Older homes consume more energy than newer homes.

Notes
The results are preliminary Energy consumption are different in
various scenarios because –– The number of households are different– The spatial arrangement of households are
different– The climate zones they are in are different– The densities they cluster around are
different (i.e. Urban vs. Rural.)– The mix of housing types (single family vs.
Multifamily etc.) are different
