Externality of Tapping Spa Water in Jiao-Xi Township / 礁溪溫泉利用之外部性

碩士 / 國立成功大學 / 都市計劃學系碩博士班 / 93 / Spa is one of the groundwater resources and is a common property. Its use brings three kinds of externalities, i.e. strategic, pumping and risk externality. In spa resort, households which can pump spa use more water for bath than those without spa to use. This shows the existence of strategic externality. Tapping spa has marginal cost which may check strategic externality. Some parts of the area have difficulty in continuing to use old wells and have to drive new wells to pump spa. Hence pumping externality exists. The area with abundant spa has land use control. That can regulate urban development and, hence, prevent spa from further pumping. In the near future it shows no sign of shortage. Users in the area face little risk externality. Government institutes the law to own and supply spa exclusively. That is certain to reduce externalities. A carefully-chosen level of fee is expected to allocate spa efficiently.
