PWTB 200-2-58 Valuation Assessment of Ecosystems  

This Public Works Technical Bulletin (PWTB) transmits a methodology for land managers to use when quantifying the economic value of Army lands. The PWTB provides a step-by-step approach to obtaining data needed to determine both monetary and environmental contributions that Army installations extend to their surrounding environment and communities. Besides the step-by-step approach, the PWTB includes an example application of the methodology for Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. For further assistance or clarification on how to use the methodology, contact the author, Mr. Don Pitts at Donald.Pitts@usace.army.mil.
