The UEDGE 2-D edge transport code is used to model the effect of impurities and tilted divertor plates for the ITER SOL/divertor region. The impurities are modeled as individual charge states using either the FMOMBAL 21-moment description or parallel force balance. Both helium and neon impurities are used together with a majority hydrogenic species. A fluid description of the neutrals is used that includes parallel inertia and neutral-neutral collisions. Effects of geometry are analyzed by using the nonorthogonal mesh capability of UEDGE to obtain solutions with the divertor plate tilted at various angles
