Economic Analysis of Environmental Regulations: Application of the Random Utility Model to Recreational Benefit Assessment for the Mp&m Effluent Guideline
Year: 1999
Type: article
Abstract: The present study focuses on a state-wide case study to evaluate recreational benefits from forthcoming effluent limitation guidelines for the Metal Products and Machinery Industry. The study combines water quality modeling and a random utility model to assess how changes in water quality from the regulation will affect consumer valuation of water resources. Based on preliminary results, the MP&M regulation has the potential to generate substantial recreational benefits in Ohio .
