This book has grown from a research workshop that began at the University of North Carolina under the direction of Maynard Hufschmidt. Professor Hufschmidt's long-held interest in the incorporation of environmental and other social values into benefit-cost analysis led to a research project entitled, "The Role of Environmental Indicators in Water Resource Planning and Policy Development," funded by the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI project number 14-34-001-8408). That project brought together the authors of this volume for a two-year period during which the groundwork for this book was laid.

Several people provided essential assistance in the completion of the original Department of the Interior study. At the University of North Carolina, Asta Cooper and Mary Pettis managed project, administrative affairs and myriad day-to-day matters. Theodore Roefs was technical officer for the project at Interior.

After completion of the Interior project research continued with support from the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of North Carolina, the Department of Urban and Regional Planning at Florida State University, and the Environmental Policy Institute at the East-West Center in Honolulu.

The book itself is a joint product of the two principal and two contributing authors. Eric L. Hyman assumed primary responsibility for chapters one, two, four, five, and six, and collaborated on chapters three, seven and eight. Bruce Stiftel assumed primary responsibility for chapters three and eight, and collaborated on chapters one, two and five. David H. Moreau collaborated on chapter eight. Robert C. Nichols collaborated on chapters six and seven.

Various scholars have commented in detail on portions of the manuscript for the book. They include: C.P. Wolf of the Social Impact Assessment Center, Ronald Bisset of the University of Aberdeen, Richard Carpenter of the EastWest Center, Duncan MacRae of the University of North Carolina, Elizabeth Wilman of the University of Calgary, Allan Kneese of Resources for the Future, and Richard Smardon of the State University of New York at Syracuse. Maynard Hufschmidt. now with the East-West Center, has continued to exercise important direction of our work.

The book has benefited from the technical editing of Ruth B. Haas of Washington, D.C. Graphics were prepared by Stan Berns of Washington and Karen Zedeck of Tallahassee, Florida. The typescript results from the work of Joan Nakamura of the East-West Center, Catalino de la Paz of the Philippine Ministry of Natural Resources, Beth Hendrix of Tallahassee, and Kathy Mullis of Florida State University. Final copy editing is the work of Kent Wimmer at Florida State University.

At Westview Press, Dean Birkenkamp has been the editor. He has worked with the assistance of acquisition editors Krista Muller, Barbara Ellington, Amos Zubrow, and Ellen Williams.

Before 1970, development plans largely were carried out within a limited framework of objectives, primarily economic efficiency. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 required the preparation of environmental impact statements for major federal actions in the United States with a potential for significant impacts on the human environment. Many of the states in this country and a large number of other countries have adopted similar requirements.
