North Aleutian Basin Transportation Methodology. Social and Economic Studies Program Technical Report Number 102

摘要

The principal objective of the report is to develop a methodology to evaluate potential changes in transportation service affected by possible OCS development of the North Aleutian Basin. The methodology consists of a set of forecasting and analysis procedures with associated assumptions about expected future events or activities, plus recommended standards for certain predetermined conditions. For each transportation mode, the methodology seeks to define and evaluate the incremental difference between conditions likely to occur with OCS activities and the conditions likely to occur with the proposed lease sale.
