This volume consists of a selection of chapters from the CD-ROM Incentive Techniques in Environmental Policy (ITEP), edited by P. Calthorpe, A. Kneese, G. Mealing, and L. Stegenga. This important reference work was first published in 1992 by Resources for the Future, Washington, D.C., prepared under the sponsorship of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Office of Risk and Environmental Management, the Environmental Protection Agency's National Risk Management Research Laboratory, and the Cooperative Environmental Studies Program of the United States Department of Defense. The primary focus of the ITEP project was the development of decision-support tools to aid in the design and analysis of environmentally significant incentive programs. Specifically designed to assist environmental managers in understanding the economic parameters underlying such programs, these decisionsupport tools highlight qualitative and quantitative insights that are instrumental in program design. While the book's coverage includes traditional topics such as pollution control, watersheds, wildlife habitat preservation, and hazardous waste management, it also examines more contemporary issues such as transportation mitigation, energy efficiency, climate change policies, and disaster preparedness. Presented in a format that is also easily accessible to nontechnical policymakers and decisionmakers, this book is thus regarded as important supplement to any library concerned with the preparation and implementation ofenvironmental policy. From a policy perspective, the volume highlights the need for simultaneously considering nonmonetary as well as monetary incentives and for comparing the merits of using all available policy instruments, whether programmed or otherwhise. Futhermore, it contains many sound judgements on the vaue, legitimacy, limitations, and implications of various incentive methodologies. As a guide to decision analysis, this volume certainly provides an invaluable resouce to anyone facing mandates or opportunities to develop an resultsoriented environmental program.
