Environmental Impact - Environmental assessments (EIS etc.)

Gray, J. R. (1977). Kinds and costs of recreational pollution in the Sandia Mountains. New Mexico State University, Las Cruces: 57pp.

Abstract

Environmental costs of recreation in the Sandia Mountains, New Mexico, were quantified by surveying recreationists, identifying associated pollutants and environmental impacts, and calculating costs of their control. Wildlife harassment, primarily by hikers, was among impacts that tended to restrict activities most in a cost analysis model. Nature study and hunter groups were determined as having the highest costs per hour.
