This book was released on 1986 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preauthorization planning for water resources development projects involves an assessment of the anticipated impacts of project alternatives and an information account display of beneficial and adverse effects on National Economic Development, Regional Development, Environmental Quality, and other Social Effects. National Economic Development (NED) is significant not only as an account but also as a planning objective. Under Principles and Guidelines (P & G), one of the alternative plans to address the needs and opportunities in water and land related planning must be the NED plan. The NED plan reasonably maximizes the net difference between NED benefits and NED costs. NED benefits arise when a Federal investment in water resources increases the nation's output of goods and services or reduces the cost of producing these goods and services. These benefits are measured as the dollar value of the increased output or the dollar value of the reduction in costs. The adverse economic effects are the NED costs which arise because resources are diverted for the project that would have value in alternative uses. These cost are measured as the dollar value of the resources in their next best alternative use.

Moser and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is designed to assist Army Corps of Engineers planners in using the contingent value method (CVM) for the economic evaluation of NED recreation benefits. CVM along with the travel cost method (TCM) are the techniques recommended in Principles and Guidelines for evaluating the economic benefits from the recreational components of Federal water resources investments. For the preparation of this manual, CVM was applied to three case studies of actual Corps District recreation projects. These case studies proved invaluable to understanding the advantages, weakness, difficulties, and potential pitfalls of the CVM. In addition, the case studies provided the basic information presented in the examples used in this report. The chapters of this report are arranged in the basic order necessary to conduct a CVM analysis. Chapter I covers the concepts and background of CVM as an economic evaluation techniques. Succeeding chapters cover the basic areas of: sampling; questionnaire design; survey design (including estimates of survey costs); data analysis procedures and techniques; and, the evaluation of NED benefits. Several examples are used to illuminate the basic process required to correctly apply CVM. Included as an appendix is the list of CVM questionnaires approved by OMB for Corps planning purposes.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this report is to illustrate, through a case study description, the practical application of the CVM method to recreation evaluation in an actual planning study. The case study description is meant to serve as a practical guide and, therefore, emphasizes what was done more than the concepts behind the techniques used. It is not intended to be a detailed guide of the entire planning process, but rather highlights activities or outcomes from this process that involved the development, conduct and application of the CVM method to recreation demand and benefit estimation, to illustrate the development of regional valuation models, and to describe the potential transferability of the procedures and/or findings of this case study to other planning applications. Ten bayous in Texas were used.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine pollution causes significant damage to fisheries and other economically productive uses of the ocean. The value of that damage can be quantified by economists, but the meanings of those valuations and how they are derived are often obscure to noneconomists.Economic Losses from Marine Pollution brings a fuller understanding of the variety and extent of marine losses and how they are assessed to scientists, lawyers, and environmentalists by systematically identifying and classifying marine losses and relating them to models and methods of economic valuation. The authors use a step-by-step approach to show how economists have used these methods and how they approach the problem of assessing economic damage.The book begins by describing the importance of economic valuation of marine damages, the history of concern over marine pollution, and the development of economic methodologies to assess damage from it. Following that, the book: considers types of marine pollution and their effects on organisms, ecosystems, and humans, and the corresponding economic effects of those biological impacts introduces the economic principles and methods needed to understand and to assess economic damages expresses losses from water quality impairments in terms of economic value introduces the basic economic techniques that have been developed and used to measure changes in economic value discusses how to apply those economic techniques, and presents a variety of practical examples explores limitations and problems that can arise in such applied work.Economic Losses from Marine Pollution includes all of the relevant economic theory together with specific examples of how that theory has been and can be applied. It offers environmental professionals with little or no background in economics the basic economic tools needed to understand economic valuations of environmental damage, and represents a unique handbook for environmental and marine scientists, lawyers, economists, policy professionals, and anyone interested in issues of marine water quality.
