The Economic Efficiency of Inter-Basin Agricultural Water Transfer in Utah: A Mathematical Programming Approach.

Abstract

The economic efficiency of water development in Utah, including transfer systems, has seldom been examined, nor has the costs of public policies which result in deviations from efficient allocations. In order that public officials be better informed about water allocations, the present effort examines the efficient allocation of water in time frames up to 2020 under several alternative assumptions and calculates the cost of alternative policies.
