while these same recovery efforts may enhance economic activity in other locations . This <br />phenomenon is particularly notable for California, which diverts water from the Colorado River at <br />the lower end of critical habitat reaches. Increased water availability in the Lower Basin reaches of <br />the river due to upstream recovery efforts may significantly benefit that State's economy. <br />State -level percentage differences in output range from a negative 0.028 percent in New Mexico to <br />a positive 0.0013 percent in California. The annualized values of the differences range from a <br />negative $12.27 million (New Mexico) to a positive $16.75 million (California). <br />Table I -E -2 presents State- and regional -level incremental impacts on employment over the period of <br />the study. The values in the table represent the deviation in employment, measured as jobs, <br />between the "without fish" and "with fish" scenarios. As discussed above, employment impacts <br />vary from positive to negative among States and over tune. For New Mexico, the employment <br />impact is approximately 2 jobs foregone in 1995 and this. rises to 613 jobs foregone by the year <br />2020. That is, there are projected to be 2 fewer jobs in 1995 then there would be without <br />endangered fishes actions. On the other hand, California gains approximately 20 jobs in 1995 and <br />1,162 jobs by 2020. For the Basin as a whole, the employment impacts are positive through the <br />study period. In 1995, the projected gain is approximately 60 jobs and by 2020 the gain is 393 <br />jobs. <br />Table I -E -2. <br />State Employment - Incremental Impacts Over Time of Critical Habitat Designation <br />(Jobs) <br />1995 <br />2000 <br />2005 <br />2010 <br />2015 <br />2020 <br />Arizona <br />-1.85 <br />-4.68 <br />-7.77 <br />-12.08 <br />-18.86 <br />-25.83 <br />California <br />19.99 <br />92.57 <br />258.48 <br />475.86 <br />781.18 <br />1161.93 <br />Colorado <br />8.91 <br />5.16 <br />-6.93 <br />-19.69 <br />-36.86 <br />-55.60 <br />Nevada <br />34.86 <br />71.52 <br />108.03 <br />143.22 <br />177.25 <br />208.69 <br />New Mexico <br />-2.17 <br />-27.98 <br />- 110.71 <br />- 239.60 <br />- 415.21 <br />- 612.64 <br />Utah <br />-10.91 <br />-22.30 <br />- 34.56 <br />-47.71 <br />-61.06 <br />-74.13 <br />Wyoming <br />-0.40 <br />-1.40 <br />-2.41 <br />-3.45 <br />-4.35 <br />-5.22 <br />Colorado <br />River Basin <br />59.94 <br />116.15. <br />178.70 <br />230.02 <br />294.76 <br />392.67 <br />viii <br />
