The thesis examines the theoretical bases for determining optimal pollution levels in the Trent River Basin, demonstrates that neither the organization of a so-called "market in pollution rights" nor the construction of marginal effluent treatment cost and marginal damage functions is a practical means of finding those levels, and proposes ways for using existing data and the Trent Research Programme river model to determine "roughly optimal" pollution levels.
