HARVEY, continued <br />Economic Impacts -UAL Maintenance Facility. Harvey assisted Dean Coddington in <br />the preparation of a major socioeconomic impact analysis of the proposed United <br />Airlines Maintenance Facility. As an alternative to the State's study, several financial <br />institutions retained BBC to evaluate the potential economic contributions and costs to <br />different levels of government. <br />Cumulative Environmental Evaluation (CEE). Harvey was the overall project director <br />for this comprehensive study of gold surface mining in the Northern Black Hills Region <br />of South Dakota. He was responsible for all subcontractors, including hydrologic, <br />water quality and environmental disciplines. The key issues of the study focused on <br />scenic values, perceptions of quality of life, tourism and how these might be effected by <br />prospective levels of surface gold mining activity in South Dakota. A survey of South <br />Dakota residents was coupled with business interviews and public sector data to <br />quantify the economic trade-offs. This study was utilized for state policy making <br />regarding appropriate land uses in the Black Hills. <br />Metro Denver Brown Cloud Studies. As part of the 1987-1988 Metro Denver Brown <br />Cloud Study, Harvey directed BBC's socioeconomic analysis of ten strategies for <br />cleaning up Denver's brown cloud. Strategies were carefully negotiated among study <br />participants. Economic costs and benefits of each strategy in terms of affected groups <br />were identified and the effectiveness of each strategy was projected. <br />Rocky Flats Studies. During 1993-94, Harvey led an economic development planning <br />and socioeconomic impact study of the change of mission at the Rocky Flats Plant. The <br />study examined different clean-up and Federal expenditure scenarios, identified <br />impacts on labor force requirements by skill, and examined the local market for workers <br />with Rocky Flats experience and skills. The study also addressed the economic and <br />fiscal effects of production layoffs and environmental restoration build-up on local <br />communities, and led to efforts to determine the optimal strategy for local government <br />stakeholders. <br />EDUCATION <br />M.S.B.A., Economics, University of Denver, 1973. <br />B.A., Economics, University of Denver, 1971. <br />BBC Research & Consulting III - 13 <br />
