Summary: 

The purpose of the Environmental Policy and Economics Workshop Series is to hold in-depth workshops on timely topics that will further the use of economics as a tool for environmental decision making. Both NSF/EPA grant recipients and researchers (from EPA, fellow Federal agencies, academia, and others) will be invited to attend and discuss their on-going research. Topics will be chosen based on relevance to current EPA issues and, more broadly, to issues of concern to the environmental economics community. These topics include exploration of innovations in economic research methods as well as how research will further environmental policy making and future environmental economic studies.

The information presented and discussed at this two-day workshop held May 19 and 20, 1994 is captured in two transcript files, and contributed to preparation of a book entitled:  The Contingent Valuation of Environmental Resources (1996)Exit

This workshop is part of the Environmental Policy and Economics Workshop Series.
