Analysis Of The Water-Quality Standards Proposed By The Nevada Division Of Environmental Protection, City Of Las Vegas, Nevada
Publications (WR)
The Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (DEP) has proposed water-quality standards, applicable to Las Vegas Bay and Lake Mead, for (1) chlorophyll, (2) un-ionized ammonia, and (3) pH.
We have concluded that the proposed standards are unlikely to protect or improve water quality in Lake Mead. The proposed chlorophyll standard:
May harm the fishery. Lakes with more chlorophyll have greater fish production.
Will not improve clarity. Chlorophyll concentrations above 30 ug/1 have little effect on clarity.
Will not protect against scums or dominance by blue-green algae. Lake Mead shows no consistent relationship between chlorophyll and scums or blue-green dominance.
Will …

Social Traps And Environmental Policy, Robert Costanza
Social Traps And Environmental Policy, Robert Costanza
Institute for Sustainable Solutions Publications and Presentations
In recent years, scientific understanding and public awareness of environmental problems have increased tremendously. Yet our ability to manage these problems effectively has in too many cases gotten worse, not better. By studying real-world social traps and laboratory examples, we can learn effective escapes.
