Versions:
Lakes Environmental SCREEN View 4.0.1 is a Windows-based graphical shell that streamlines access to the U.S. EPA’s SCREEN3 atmospheric dispersion screening model, positioning itself in the Environmental / Air Quality Modeling category. By wrapping the text-driven SCREEN3 executable in an intuitive interface, the program lets environmental consultants, regulatory agencies, and industrial hygienists set up, run, and visualize screening-level assessments of stack or fugitive emissions without manual scripting. Users can specify simple or complex terrain, toggle building-downwash algorithms on or off, and request concentrations at either discrete receptor rings or an automated distance array; the software then writes the proper input file, launches the EPA Fortran engine, and returns tabulated and plotted worst-case 1-hour concentrations that can be compared directly to ambient air standards. Because SCREEN3 is the regulatory-recommended screener for the more elaborate ISC3/ISC-AERMOD series, early runs with SCREEN View frequently demonstrate that a facility’s maximum ground-level impact falls below significance thresholds, eliminating the need to assemble meteorological and terrain databases for advanced modeling and thereby saving considerable time and budget. Typical applications include quick permit checks for boilers, generators, or flares at factories, refineries, and landfills, as well as evaluation of proposed stack height changes or control-device scenarios. Although only one release (version 4.0.1) is listed, the publisher notes that it already incorporates the 1995 EPA SCREEN3 executable and current regulatory guidance. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
