Petroleum Facilities in Washington: A Regional Benefit-Cost Analysis
构建了一个区域经济模型，用于评估华盛顿州石油开发项目的国家收益与区域损失，帮助决策者考虑补偿安排。
This article develops a regional economic model relevant to the siting of energy facilities. It considers the constraints on information inherent in any effort to incorporate both environmental and economic values in economic analysis. After developing a model that recognizes these constraints, the model is then applied to a particular case: the evaluation of potential petroleum developments in Washington State. The model can compare national benefits with any regional losses and allow decision makers to consider compensatory arrangements. 18 references, 2 figures, 2 tables.
