ESTIMATION OF FIRST ROUND AND SELECTED SUBSEQUENT INCOME EFFECTS OF WATER RESOURCES INVESTMENT

Abstract

The publication presents research leading to a methodology for estimating the first-round local effects related to the change in the availability of water for supply purposes or recreation. It develops estimates of demand for reservoir recreation, and estimates the change in structural unemployment resulting from changes in output. It evaluates the differences in regional multiplier values, proposes a refinement in regional multiplier estimates, and integrates the various research papers, presenting a case for the selected strategy for estimating those national income benefits to water resource development in excess of direct output valued in terms of the users 'willingness to pay.'
