An economic cost benefit analysis of California WaterFix

Order Description

the intake stations for the State Water Project and the Central Valley Project to alleviate the water crisis Central and Southern California faces.

Utilized cost benefits analysis that includes a base and optimistic scenario that follow the project description and environmental analysis produced by project
proponents, and opponents that makes a number of assumptions that are favorable to the Water Fix such as the use of a low-discount rate, a 100-year operating lifespan,
and no environmental costs.

The results should show that the WaterFix is not economically and environmentally justified under both the base and optimistic scenarios.

The political and economic aspects of the situation. What/who are the interests/players (industry, tribes/first nations people, vulnerable populations, developers,
