Public programs to reduce the rate of coastal wetlands losses are based
upon an ambiguous policy framework. Also, scientific uncertainty about the
services of wetlands make credible economic valuation difficult, thus reducing
the utility of benefit cost analysis within the wetlands regulation process.
Reform of national wetlands programs can result in enhanced maintenance of
wetlands stocks and accommodation of development pressures. The policy
reforms proposed in this paper will result in achievement of these objectives
in an economically efficient manner.

Environmental Improvement: A Case Example from Virginia's Soft
Crab Fishery." land Economics, 61(4):398-408.
The objective of this paper is to use the restoration of submerged
aquatic vegetation (SAV) levels to support the Virginia soft crab fishery as
an illustration of the necessary analysis to support an environmental
improvement plus beneficiary tax program. Toward that end the relationship
between SAV abundance and soft crab harvest will be demonstrated. Then a
conceptual model is developed discussing principles for setting benefit taxes
on an open access fishery. Empirical estimation of the model components
illustrates the application of the approach.

Weak vs. Strong Disposability. Selected Paper, American Agricultural
Economics Association Meetings, Nashville, Tennessee, August 8-11, 15
pp.
This paper addresses the issue of the shadow price of environmental bads
treated as an undesirable output (normal input) with weak (strong)
disposability in a two-stage estimation. Nebraska agriculture sector time
series data is spread over 1936-94. Results indicate the difference in the
price due to the disposability property.

A summary of the biological knowledge of sharks including life history
characteristics, conservation status, shark fishery trends and implications
for the future, management history and implications, and finally a call for
more biological data collection and the immediate management of sharks around
the world even if the necessary data supporting it does not exist.
