Why Include Eternalities?, Jonathan Raab Jan 1993

Why Include Eternalities?, Jonathan Raab

Maine Policy Review

"Externalities" are costs imposed on third parties without compensation. Pollution is the archetypical externality. It is the pollution externality that has prompted the emerging national debate over whether public utility regulation should be modified to account for externalities. Jonathan Raab and two other authors [Freeman, Townsend, this issue] discuss the arguments surrounding the externality debate. These three authors earlier presented similar material at a Legislative Institute, sponsored by the Margaret Chase Smith Center for Public Policy's Project for the Study of Regulation and the Environment, for the Utilities Committee of the Maine State Legislature.

The Trinity Of Transmission Issues: Siting, Access And Pricing, Ashley Brown

He is particularly known for his vocal efforts to forge a more cooperative state-federal relationship in electrical regulation. This article is an edited excerpt from his keynote address at the PURE '93 Conference.


Understanding The Clean Air Act: Implementation Issues For Electric Utilities, Susan E. Dudley Jan 1993

Understanding The Clean Air Act: Implementation Issues For Electric Utilities, Susan E. Dudley

Maine Policy Review

With the creation of tradable sulfur dioxide permits under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, financial markets have been drawn into the effort to achieve targeted air pollution reductions at least cost. As Susan Dudley explains, financial markets will go well beyond simply providing a place to buy and sell permits. These markets will create a variety of "futures" contracts that will enable utilities to manage the risks of planning future strategies to control pollution.


Climate Change Policy: Mixing Politics And Uncertainty, Dean Marriott Jan 1993

Climate Change Policy: Mixing Politics And Uncertainty, Dean Marriott

Maine Policy Review

Global climate change has garnered some media attention, but has failed to gather the attention of most governmental decision makers and the public. In an effort to advance concerns about the issue, the New England Governors and Eastern Canadian Premiers sponsored a three-day symposium on climate change last May 19-21 in Portland. At the symposium, scientists and public officials from both the U.S. and Canada explored the science of climate change, the potential implications and impact of climate change on this region, and the possible policy responses. Dean Marriott [and James Bruce and Mark Victor, this issue] reflecting the breadth …

Bridging The Gap Between Energy And The Environment, John Flumerfelt Jan 1993

Bridging The Gap Between Energy And The Environment, John Flumerfelt

Maine Policy Review

Energy and environmental policies have always been intertwined, but the exact nature of those interrelationships is often difficult for the non-technical reader to understand. In an analysis that was originally included in an appendix of the Report of the Maine Commission on Comprehensive Energy Planning, the former director of Maine's Office of Energy, John Flumerfelt, provides a clear and concise graphical summary of the relation between energy use and air pollution in Maine. His presentation frames the issues in ways that identify important energy and environmental questions for the state.
