Description:
The Committee on Social and Economic Implications of Energy Extraction, Conversion, and Transportation (GPC-8) of the Great Plains Agricultural Council sponsored a workshop on Modeling Local Impacts of Energy Development in Denver, Colorado in March, 1980. The workshop included nine major papers, each dealing with the current state of the art and/or new concepts in the development and utilization of socio-economic impact models. Topics which were emphasized in the workshop included: (1) Present status of socioeconomic impact models and techniques with recommendations for future work; (2) Long-term structural changes in rural economies and their implications for impact modeling; and Labor market implications of large-scale energy development.
