Securing support for nonpoint pollution control with local compensation

1981

Park, William M. | Shabman, Leonard A.

Extract: This study's thesis is that acceptance of a nonpoint pollution control strategy by an individual jurisdiction requires the expectation of receiving positive net benefits. The overall objective of this research, therefore, was to investigate how local compensation payments can be used to encourage acceptance of nonpoint pollution control strategies to ensure that no jurisdiction incurs costs in excess of benefits.
