A steadily increasing appreciation of the value of wetlands and recognition of the factors leading to their loss have spurred the federal government to introduce a series of programs to regulate and manage wetlands. The benefits of these wetland protection programs accrue to the general public, while the largest share of protection costs are borne by private landowners. Measuring the Benefits of Federal Wetland Programsdescribes the goals and mechanisms of federal wetland regulation and management efforts and outlines a framework for measuring the benefits of wetland protection. Scodari explores federal wetland programs and the problems with benefits assessment in this context. Written by a natural resources economist, Measuring the Benefits of Federal Wetland Programsis a valuable tool for understanding the quantitative assessment of wetland protection benefits and belongs on the bookshelf of anyone involved in wetland protection or regulation.Paul F. Scodari is the author of 'Measuring the Benefits of Federal Wetland Programs', published 1997 under ISBN 9780911937718 and ISBN 0911937714.
