Application Of Marginal Economic Analysis To Reservoir Recreation Planning, John Ellis Sirles Iii, L. Douglas James

KWRRI Research Reports

Recreation visitation and cost data at three reservoirs in the Ohio River Valley (Rough River, Dewey, and Winton Woods) were analyzed in an attempt to derive a method by which the optimum level of reservoir recreation development could be determined by marginal economic analysis.

The visitation data were used to determine factors expressing the time distribution of facility use, capacity coefficients, and realized benefits. The cost data were used to estimate annual cost, and marginal cost as functions of annual visitation. Marginal cost and marginal benefit data were combined to find the optimum size.

Potential visitation to Winton Woods was …

The Role Of State And Local Government In The Economic Development Of Appalachia, Roy W. Bahl, Robert J. Saunders

ECON Publications

One dimension of development planning for Appalachia which has been given little attention is the potential role of state and local governments. That is, what taxation and expenditure policies are most harmonious with the goals of economic development? The dual objectives of this paper are to examine the trend and pattern of finances shaped by the state and local government sector in an underdeveloped Appalachian state, and to explore the implications of alternative public (state- local) policies for economic growth.
