Independent Economic Analysis Board background
The Independent Economic Analysis Board (IEAB) was
established in November 1996 by the Council to assist with difficult
economic issues associated with the Council's fish and wildlife program.
The Board is a panel of eight economists whose expertise
helps improve the cost-effectiveness analysis of fish and wildlife
recovery measures. The panel also provides economic advice on analysis of
other fish, wildlife and energy issues at the Council's request.
IEAB members represent a variety of natural resource
economics specialties and are required to be independent and free of
conflicts of interest. Members are paid an hourly rate for work on Council
approved tasks. |
