Economic Impacts from Spending by Marina Slip Renters at Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir

Abstract

This report documents the local economic impacts of marina slip users at Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir, located in west-central Missouri. This economic assessment is based on the results of a 1999 survey of a sample of Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir marina slip renters. Spending estimates are adjusted to 2004 dollars. The economic impacts estimated for Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir are useful for accountability purposes, lake support, and explaining the role of the lake in the region's economy. This report demonstrates how the survey results can also be used to evaluate management alternatives and strategies and to conduct sensitivity analyses.
