Book excerpt: The overall objective of this study was to analyze the economic value of a trout fishery in the Mountain Fork River (MFR) below Broken Bow Dam. However, general approaches used for the economic analysis of market goods do not work for valuing nonmarket goods such as the MFR trout fishery. The obstacie is that the price-consumption relationship of the MFR trout fishery is not observed in the market place. Hence, a nonmarket valuation approach needed to be considered and applied in valuing the fishery. Basic concepts in the measurement of welfare change were reviewed and procedures for their implementation were considered as presented in Principles and Guidelines (U.S. Water Resources Council, 1983). Nonmarket valuation approaches were reviewed and discussed as a theoretical basis for this study. Empirical issues related to nonmarket valuation methods were presented and discussed. Procedures for the empirical and analysis of demand and benefit for the MFR trout fishery were presented. Methods for obtaining information about the anglers of the MFR trout fishery were presented and the various survey instruments were discussed. Analysis of sample survey data for the MFR trout fishery and parcipating anglers was presented for the three year period (1989 - 1991). Information about the fishery, angler trips, and angler characteristics gave important but broad information helpful for the empirical analysis of the fishery. The travel cost method (TCM) was selected for estimating the demand and benefit. More specifically, the classical TCM was selected with specification of the dependent quantity variable as the number of individual angler trips. Independent variables included in the empirical model were price of MFR trout fishery (total direct cost), price of other activities provided at the site of the MFR (portion of total direct cost), time cost of travel, a measure for substitute sites, household income, attractiveness or quality of the trout fishery revealed by the anglers, and other socioeconomic variables. The own price and travel time variables were combined to overcome multicollinearity.
