SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title:
Visibility Valuation in National Parks
and Wilderness Areas: Pre-test and Pilot
Test.
Bureau Form Number: None.
OMB Number: To be requested.
Expiration Date: To be requested.
Type of Request: New collection.
Description of Need: The Clean Air
Act includes provisions designed to
maintain and enhance visibility at
national parks and wilderness areas
(Sections 169A, 169B, and 110(a)(2)(j)).
The National Park Service is directed by
its Organic Act to ‘‘conserve the scenery
* * * unimpaired for the enjoyment of
future generations’’ (16 U.S.C. a-1); and
the Clean Air Act charges the NPS with
an ‘‘affirmative responsibility to protect
air quality related values (including
visibility)’’ (42 U.S.C. 7475(d)(2)(B)).
Therefore, the NPS believes it is
imperative that the value of visibility
changes is adequately represented in
cost-benefit analyses related to state and
federal efforts that may affect visibility
(including the Regional Haze Rule, 40
CFR part 51). Although several studies
were conducted to estimate visibility
benefits in the 1970s and 1980s,
methodologies for estimating the
benefits of improvements in
environmental goods have advanced
significantly since that time.
Furthermore, baseline visibility
conditions in national parks and
wilderness areas have changed
significantly over the last few decades.
As a result, updated estimates of
visibility benefits are required.
NPS plans to conduct a nationwide
stated-preference survey to estimate the
value of visibility changes in national
parks and wilderness areas. Statedpreference surveys use carefully
designed questions to elicit
respondents’ willingness to pay for
improvements in environmental quality.
A general population stated-preference
survey is required in this case, as many
U.S. citizens may be willing to pay to
improve or maintain visibility at
national parks and wilderness areas,

even if they do not use these areas.
Stated-preference surveys are the only
methodology available to estimate these
non-market-based values. But to ensure
that the nationwide survey is unbiased
and readily understood by respondents
and that the likely effect of nonresponse on benefit estimates is known,
the pre-test and pilot test must first be
conducted.
The pre-testing will be done through
focus groups, which will be used to
develop and refine a survey instrument
for the pilot study. Twelve focus groups
will be conducted, with approximately
10 participants in each group (120 in
total). Thus, a sufficient number of
responses will be gathered to evaluate
the information presentation, reliability,
internal consistency, response
variability, and other properties of the
draft survey. Results will be used to
make improvements to the survey
instrument. NPS will proceed
iteratively, modifying the draft survey
instrument after each focus group to
ensure that the wording of the questions
is clear and unbiased and effectively
addresses the relevant issues.
The pilot study will be designed to
account for the potential impact of mail
survey non-response on benefit
estimates. The pilot study will involve
a split-sample comparison between a
mail and an in-person survey.
Respondents will be asked to complete
the survey instrument developed during
the pre-testing stage. The results will
ultimately be used to adjust the benefit
estimates obtained in the nationwide
survey for potential non-response bias.
The final content of the pilot survey
instrument will depend on the pretesting results. At a minimum, the
survey will describe the characteristics
of various visibility improvement
programs and ask respondents to select
a preferred program. The survey will
also include socio-demographic
questions and questions designed to
evaluate the respondents’ motivation in
selecting a preferred program. Surveys
will be conducted with approximately
800 individuals.
For this pilot study, 16 neighborhoods
will be selected in two metropolitan
areas (Phoenix, AZ and Syracuse, NY).
Each neighborhood sample will be split
into two groups, with 50 households
assigned to a mail survey group and 50
households assigned to an in-person
survey group. The in-person survey will
be conducted in a manner that
minimizes the differences between the
two survey modes. NPS specifically
requests comments on: (1) The practical
utility of the information being
gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden
hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the
