Abstract/Contents: | "Literatures on price-based urban water conservation and on market-based mechanisms to manage natural resources suggest that market-based management of urban/suburban water use may be feasible. A market-based proposal that emerged from a water shortage on California's Monterey Peninsula is presented. In the proposal, conservation incentives arise both from an ability among end-users of water to reduce consumption and sell use-rights to water, and from a penalty price for consumption in excess of one's use rights. The amount of water associated with use rights is capped and varies according to hydrological, meteorological, ecological, and other criteria. Requirements for further study of the proposal are listed, and the role that similar market-based mechanisms could play in urban water management is discussed." |
