Draft Comprehensive Conservation Plan and Environmental Assessment


Book Description

Every spring and fall, the big sky country of northeast Montana is fi lled with the clamor of bird calls. Many migrating birds stop along the glaciated rolling plains between the Missouri River and the Canadian border, at the Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), the Northeast Montana Wetland Management District (WMD), and the Lamesteer National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), which are managed together as one refuge complex. With a bird list that includes some 283 species, the refuge complex has been designated as one of the top 100 globally important bird areas in the United States by the American Bird Conservancy (Chipley 2001).

Measuring Nonuse Damages Using Contingent Valuation


Book Description

This second edition of Measuring Nonuse Damages Using Conjoint Valuation is essentially a reprint of a 1992 monograph that has been in steady demand since its original appearance. The RTI Press edition, which is intended to meet continued inquiries and requests for the monograph, contains a Foreword and a Preface to the second edition that put the original work into historical perspective. These studies of ways to value stated preferences, as applied then to the Exxon Valdez oil spill, continue to be a timely and still-rigorous examination of such methods; even with the passage of time and statistical advances from the past two decades, the conclusions and insights as to whether and how these techniques might still be employed in valuing use or nonuse losses from similar events remain valid.
