  • 2011 Regional Health Assessment Executive Summary
    The West Central Public Health Partnership 2011 REGIONAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT Executive Summary West Central Public Health Partnership 2011 Regional Health Assessment Executive Summary Background Rural Areas of America have traditionally been challenged to adequately support the health care needs of their residents. Assessment, Assurance and Policy Development are the core functions of Public Health and, with that in mind, access to care and provision of direct services to underinsured and uninsured, when otherwise not available, rest with Public Health. With the goal of making the best use of limited existing and future resources (both human and fiscal) and facilitating cooperation among adjacent rural communities, the West Central Public Health Partnership (WCPHP) was formed in 2006, through a grant from The Colorado Trust, for the purpose of providing more efficient and more effective public health services in Planning and Management Region 10. The WCPHP comprises public health and environment personnel from Delta, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Montrose, Ouray and San Miguel counties in west central Colorado. A regional health assessment was completed by the WCPHP in 2007 as one of the four initial goals of the WCPHP. It was the intention to update the regional health assessment in 2010-2011. With the passage of the Colorado Public Health Reorganization Act (the Act), effective July 1, 2008, state and local public health agencies are charged with establishing state and local public health plans that set priorities for the public health system in Colorado. A health assessment must be done and stakeholders engaged in order to then create a public health plan. As a result of the Act and a prevention grant obtained by the Director of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) Office of Planning and Partnership (OPP), the WCPHP was chosen as a regional pilot site for the development of the proposed Colorado Health Assessment and Planning System (CHAPS).

  • Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Mary Clare Ahearn for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Agricultural and Resource Economics presented on January 4, 1984. Title: An Analysis of Contingent Valuation Applied to Air Quality and Public Safety from Crime. Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: The past decade has seen a greater acceptance of contingent valuation as a technique for valuing changes in the level of a non- market good or service. Through this technique, willingness to pay or accept responses are collected on a survey instrument for hypo- thetical. changes in the level of a nonmarket good. The purpose of this research is to expand the empirical knowledge base of contingent valuation by investigating the relationships beten contingent valu- ation responses and objective indicators of the quality or quantity of the good, losses incurred from the current level of the good, related private market purchases and household characteristics. Contingent valuation responses are ex ante responses, or intended behavior, and are affected by underlying attitudes. Also of interest is the relationship between these attitudes, measured as satisfaction, and contingent valuation. Where contingent valuation is concerned with valuing a spcified change in povisionB, satisfaction is n general, unconstralued attitude about the adequacy of provision. The results Lndicatd r;hat the mean annual willingn to-ay fr improved aIr quality was $26.67. For improved safety from crino the mean bid was$41.23.The relationh1p between at fac:io &nd w:L.1- ingness to pay for improved air qaiity is judged to be açpopriateiy modeled as a recursive system.

  • Colorado Magazine, October 1950
    THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published Monthly by The State Historical Society of Colorado Volume XXVll Denver, Colorado, October, 1950 Number 4 The Origins of the Colorado System of Water-Right Control ROBERT G. DUNBAR* Colorado was the first Western State to create a state-wide system of public control of water rights. This system, which has had great influence on the irrigation institutions of the other West­ ern States, is frequently referred to as the Colorado System. It is not to be confused with the Colorado Doctrine, which is another name for those legal principles known as the Doctrine of Prior Appropriation. The first Colorado law which provided for the regulation of streams was enacted by the first Territorial legislature in 1861. Section 4 of this statute provided: That in case the volume of water in said stream or river shall not be sufficient to supply the continual wants of the entire country through which it passes, then the nearest justice of the peace shall appoint three commissioners ... whose duty it shall be to apportion, in a just and equitable proportion, a certain amount of said water upon certain or alternate weekly days to different localities, as they may, in their judgement, think best for the interests of all parties concerned, and with a due regard to the legal rights of all ...1 However, the pioneer irrigators had little need for a law of this character. Their ditches were small and the water in the rivers was abundant. It was more necessary to take measures for the regula­ tion of individual ditches.
