This essay is a summery essay for a report about environment. Your task is to find one that interests you and write a brief summary of the regulation and the estimated costs and benefits. I already chose the easiest one for you which is called Safe Water. I will attach the detailed instruction and the report later.
There is a brief instruction:
A) A description of the regulation
B) A summary of the benefits that are anticipated including the categories of benefits (health effects – deaths avoided, hospital visits avoided, effects on wildlife, etc) and the dollar magnitude of the benefits. Be clear about the units of reporting including how they have been deflated and whether these are measured as annual benefits or the PVB over a long time horizon.
C) A summary of the costs of the regulation. Include the sources of the costs and the dollar value.
D) Your overall evaluation of the RIA. Is it thorough and believable? Are there any obvious weaknesses or omissions? Does it compare cost and benefits using appropriate discounting methods?
