Abstract

The potential impacts of tradable discharge permit (TDP) programs on the environment they are intended to protect are discussed. Major concerns include the possibility of market failure, modeling difficulties and political counter-objectives. Many of these studies assumed deterministic environmental models when in reality nothing is ever constant. The mean-value-first-order-second-moment (MFOSM) method was used. It was found that, for the particular case of the Willamette River, trading improves the system reliability.
