Dynamic nonpoint-source pollution control policy: ambient transfers and uncertainty
When a regulator cannot observe or infer individual emissions, corrective policy must rely on ambient pollution data. Assuming this kind of environment, we study a class of differential games of pollution control with profit functions that are polynomial in the global pollution stock. Given an open-loop emissions strategy satisfying mild regularity conditions, an ambient transfer scheme is exhi...
متن کاملReducing Nonpoint Source Pollution
76 Vegetated buff ers are a well-studied and widely used agricultural management practice for reducing nonpointsource pollution. A wealth of literature provides experimental data on their mitigation effi cacy. Th is paper aggregated many of these results and performed a meta-analysis to quantify the relationships between pollutant removal effi cacy and buff er width, buff er slope, soil type, a...
متن کاملNonpoint Source Pollution
A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) program has been initiated in the North Bosque River Watershed in Texas, USA, where point and nonpoint sources of pollution are of a concern. The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT), which had been validated for flow and sediment and nutrient transport, was applied to quantify the effects of Best Management Practices (BMPs) related to dairy manure management ...
متن کاملCalifornia’s Agriculture-Related Local Air Pollution Policy
Air pollution is a critical environmental issue for California, which has some of the nation’s most polluted air basins and also the nation’s most stringent set of state and local air quality standards. This paper reviews my previous work in Lin (2011), in which I examine the effects of agriculture-related local regulations in California on air quality, as measured by the number of exceedances ...
متن کاملLinking Science and Policy for Urban Nonpoint Source Pollution in the Great Lakes Region
While some environmental problems in the Great Lakes have been ameliorated in the last few decades, others have not. One problem that still resists solution is urban nonpoint source pollution: contaminated runoff from impervious surfaces (such as roads, parking lots, and roofs), and from other sources, such as lawns and construction sites. This form of pollution is rooted in fundamental aspects...
