Functions of the New Tool

1. Simulate the “economic effects” of new, increased, decreased or the stoppage of dredging

2. Estimates direct and secondary impacts: sales, employment and income

3. Estimates direct and “stemming –from” impacts

4. Enables users to identify and assess impacts for very specific economic impact areas

Page 3: A New Tool for Estimating and Simulating Economic Impacts of Dredging Activity New, Increased and Reduced Dredging Drs. Yue Cui and Ed Mahoney, Michigan

Tool is being Modeled After the USACE’s RECONS Model and Other Web-based Economic Impact Tools

Designed By MSU

1. Regional Economic System (RECONS) provides accurate and defensible estimates of local job creation and retention and other economic measures such as value added, income and sales

2. RECONS allows the USACE to evaluate direct investment spending associated with the annual Civil Work budget of the eight business lines managed by the USACE.

3. RECONS also enables users to evaluate the economic contribution of industries and activities that are dependent on or benefit from USACE programs and infrastructure; these downstream effects are termed “stemming from effects.”

The USACE’s RECONS Newly Enhanced (Stemming

From Effects) Port Model

The model allows users to estimate the stemming from effects of port industries based on a modified version of Port Kit consist of the following: 

1. Definition of Port locations and impact areas

2. Mapping of RIMSII industries to IMPLAN industries; extracting relevant industry economic multipliers derived from IMPLAN

3. Port default expenditures by sector for cargo

4. Identify cargo tonnage

5. Modal shares and distance for inland movements

The USACE’s RECONSEconomic Impact

Assessment of Ports and Shipping

The RECONS port module estimates the economic contribution of cargo shipments within ports for various types of cargo (for example, dry bulk, automobiles, containers, etc.).

The USACE’s RECONSEconomic Impact

Assessment of Ports and Shipping1. The cost elements associated with the port include port services, cargo handling, fuel service, vessel and crew supplies, cargo storage, cargo packing and unpacking, crew leave and finally, inland transport costs.

2. The costs were then aggregated by IMPLAN sector for each type of cargo to summarize the costs for the various types of cargo by type of cost, with the appropriate IMPLAN industry.
