Please see [our response](https://forum.cmascenter.org/t/dust-lu-2-file-forest-variable-not-correct/1305/21) in a [related thread on windblown dust](https://forum.cmascenter.org/t/dust-lu-2-file-forest-variable-not-correct/1305).

Unfortunately, at the moment the BELD4 file generated by the spatial allocator does not contain all the land use categories expected by the CMAQ dust module when CTM\_WBDUST\_BELD is set to BELD4. We are investigating this issue and plan to update the code and/or model documentation in the future.
