Measuring Air Pollution Control Benefits
This report summarizes the first major series of research reports to be produced by a "center of excellence" originally established by the EPA Office of Research and Development at the University of Wyoming in the mid-1970s to carry out research on the economic benefits of pollution control. You can also download the full report.
Reports summarizing the second and third series, entitled Methods Development for Environmental Control Benefits Assessments and Methods Development in Measuring Benefits of Environmental Improvements, respectively, are also available.
Individual reports from a fourth series, entitled Experimental Methods for Assessing Environmental Benefits, and part of a fifth series, entitled Improving Accuracy and Reducing the Costs of Environmental Benefits Assessments, are also available under these series titles on the Environmental Economics Reports page, but no online summaries are now available.
