Valuing Oil Spill Prevention: A Case Study of California's Central Coast (Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2004)Paperback - Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2004, 23 August 2014

This book documents a contingent valuation study for a significant environmental good: preventing the likely injuries from oil spills on the coast of Central California. It functions as a 'how-to' guide by documenting design, administration, and analysis of such studies, to reduce the long lead time which characterizes most economic damage assessments. The book includes a CD-ROM containing a wealth of additional material: data, questionnaires, transcripts and more.
