Comments on LMFBR Cost-Benefit Analysis,

Abstract

This review of the cost-benefit analysis of the LMFBR is in three sections, each of which looks at the issue from a somewhat different perspective. The first section examines several of the most important assumptions and detailed projections which underlie the analysis. Section II reviews the role of cost-benefit analysis as a tool for decisionmaking in the LMFBR case, based on the analysis contained in the PFEIS and on the modifications suggested by our review. Based on a synthesis of these findings, the third section suggests some guides for future policy.
