We summarize the phenomenological description of electron-deuteron deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) with detection of a nucleon in the nuclear fragmentation region, eD → e' + N + X ("spectator tagging"), at collision energies accessible with an Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), √seD ~ several 10 GeV. This includes (a) the kinematic variables, differential cross section, conditional structure functions, and phase space elements; (b) a cross section model based on the light-front impulse approximation and an analytic parametrization of the deuteron wave function; (c) counting rate estimates for simulations of cross section measurements and on-shell extrapolation in the recoil nucleon momentum; (d) a FORTRAN 77 code package for computing the cross section and performing counting rate estimates. The document summarizes the definitions and results without derivation and is intended as a reference for programming and simulations.
