Carbon Tax and Greenhouse Gas Control: Options and Considerations for Congress
ISBN: 9781499311372 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Market-based mechanisms that limit greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be divided into two types: quantity control (e.g., cap-and-trade) and price control (e.g., carbon tax or fee). To some extent, a carbon tax and a cap-and-trade program would produce similar effects: Both are estimated to increase the price of fossil fuels, which would ultimately be borne by consumers, particularly households. Although there are multiple tools available to policymakers that could control GHG emissions-including existing statutory authorities-this report focuses on a carbon tax approach and how it compares to...

ISBN: 9781502777225 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 34 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This report traces the current and possible future evolution of mobile communications networks and some of the changes in spectrum policy that might better accommodate innovation. Congress at present is engaged in debates over how to maximize the value-economic, monetary, or other-of upcoming auctions for spectrum licenses, notably the Broadcast Incentive Auction required by the Spectrum Act in 2012 (P.L. 112-96, Title VI). The evolution of wireless technologies, as outlined in this report, indicates that auctions, as presently structured, are a limited policy tool. Congress, therefore, may...

Child Welfare: Profiles of Current and Former Older Foster Youth Based on the National Youth in Transition Database (NYTD)
ISBN: 9781503006799 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 26 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Congress has long been concerned with the well-being of older youth in foster care and those who have recently emancipated from care without going to a permanent home. Research on this population is fairly limited, and the few studies that are available have focused on youth who live in a small number of states. This research has generally found that youth who spend time in foster care during their teenage years tend to have difficulty as they enter adulthood and beyond. The Chafee Foster Care Independence Act (P.L. 106-169), enacted in 1999, specified that state child welfare agencies...

National Capital Region Network Remote Sensing and Landscape Pattern Protocol for Land-cover Monitoring of Parks: Version 2.0
ISBN: 9781492945093 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 134 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. These protocols describe the application of remote sensing imagery for monitoring spatially explicit ecological indicators (vital signs) of landscape pattern that have been identified for the National Capital Region Network (NCRN).

The multi-scale approach facilitates the acquisition of fine-scale data suitable for detailed analyses of small areas (1-m resolution or smaller) and coarser data (e.g., up to 15 and 30m...

Prescription Drug Abuse
ISBN: 9781502914736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 24 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. An estimated 6.5 million individuals currently abuse prescription drugs in the United States. Unlike policy on street drugs, federal policy on prescription drug abuse is complicated by the need to maintain access to prescription controlled substances (PCS) for legitimate medical use. The federal government has several roles in reducing prescription drug abuse. Coordination. The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) coordinates and tracks prescription drug abuse reduction efforts and funding of multiple federal agencies. Regulation. The primary federal statutes governing prescription...
