VALUES <br /> <br />The user expenditures for each output and activity within the watershed were processed through <br />an economic input-output =odel to determine the impact On each of several economic indicators <br />fOt each alternative. The projected 1980 San Juan sub-region input-output model from the Upper <br />Colorado Region Comptehensive Framework Study--Economic Base and Projections. June 1971, <br />WaS Uged in this snalysis. The user expenditure data was updated with the current <br />price index (Dece~ber, 1976) to make the relationships as current as possible. Direct annual <br />income was considered to be a national impact and therefore displayed in the NED account <br />(rable X). Wheteas the Regional impact includes both direct and indirect annual income. Gross <br />Regional Product, and regional emplo~nt are also shown in the aD account. The input-output <br />model provided final dehands for resources converted to direct income snd employment through <br />coefflcienta for labor, income and value added. The NED account considered direct effect and <br />was nOt expsnded to indirect effects within the national economic sectora, For the Regional <br />Development account, the economic sectors Were expended to determine the indirect efCects. The <br />indirect impacts within a region are assumed to be offset by an equal loss in other regions of <br />the nation, Therefore the net indirect illlpact to the nation is ~ero. However, to the tegion <br />in question, indirect i~pacts are real, hence added in the RD account. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />D. SED ACCOlll-'T <br /> <br />Table IX displays the additions of outputs and tOSts for each river alternative. These data <br />were then entered into the econo~ic input-output model for southwestern Colorado. This model <br />determined values and elllployment by economic sector for esch river alternative plan. Table X <br />shows the resulra oC the economic snalysis of the alternatives. <br /> <br />E. EQ ACCOllNT <br /> <br />The enviroOlllental quality account provides a comparison of the effect of the plans on the <br />components of the EQ account. rable Xl shows rhe effects that are c~lelllentary to the EQ <br />component objective and the potential effects that are non-colllplelllentsry In that the effects <br />can be depreciative on the values for which the action is to prote~t, <br /> <br />, <br />, <br /> <br />r. REGIOSAL DEVELOPMENT ACcom.. (RO) <br /> <br />This account differs from the NED aCCOunt by showing direct and indirect economic activity <br />within the 4rea induced by the alternatives. In the NED account, the indirect economic sctiv- <br />ity was not detetlllined. Dispersed economic sectors and values of goods and services produced <br />and leaving the regioo are offset by an equal value of loss by not being consumed in the region, <br />also in the NED sphere. rable XII shows the alternative effects for Regional Development. <br /> <br />1-11 <br />
