This occurs in approximately 10 zones throughout theconsolidated region. When the IE estimate for a given zone is larger than the home-basedestimate, the difference is set to zero, which has the effect of overestimating trips by anamount equal to the difference in the estimates. For the base year model estimates, thisoverestimation amounts to 32 trip productions and 307 trip attractions, which clearlyrepresents a negligible impact on total trip generation.• Apply the attraction scale factors prior to trip balancing.Trip Generation - Trip Generation 21
