Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Except for regional bus firms, Greyhound Lines, Inc., is the only remaining nationwide provider of scheduled, regular-route intercity bus service, and it filed for bankruptcy protection in June 1990. This event climaxed decades of industry decline, which the Congress had hoped to reverse by passing the Bus Regulatory Reform Act of 1982. The General Accounting Office (GAO) was asked to (1) assess the magnitude and causes of the industry's decline since 1982, (2) identify the social and economic implications of this decline, (3) examine state programs that support intercity bus service, and (4) identify policy strategies for the Department of Transportation (DOT) to consider as it develops guidelines to address intercity bus needs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined the condition of the intercity bus industry since its deregulation in 1982, focusing on: (1) the social and economic implications of this decline; (2) state efforts to support intercity bus service; and (3) policy strategies for the Department of Transportation (DOT) to consider as it develops guidelines to address intercity bus needs. GAO found that: (1) regulatory relief for the intercity bus industry in 1982 did not revitalize the industry, and shrinking rural populations, increased competition from air and rail transportation, and increased car ownership led to reduced bus ridership; (2) intercity buses went from serving almost 12,000 locations in 1982 to serving fewer than 6,000 locations in 1991, and over the same period, the bus industry's share of intercity passenger-miles on public transportation fell from 12 percent to 6 percent; (3) the social and economic effects of declining intercity bus service are difficult to assess because data on the number and characteristics of users of the abandoned routes are scant, but available evidence suggests that the affected riders are those least able to afford and least likely to have access to alternative transportation; (4) 20 states have ongoing efforts to maintain or support intercity bus service, which include financial support for individual bus routes, funding for construction or rehabilitation of intermodal terminals used by buses, and providing new vehicles to bus firms at reduced cost; (5) the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 recognized the need to expand federal transit activities by requiring states to spend at least 15 percent of their allocations to assist intercity bus service; and (6) some states could face difficulty using those funds effectively because DOT has not decided what activities will be eligible to receive set-aside funds and because of federal labor protection requirements.

Download or read book The Social and Economic Consequences of Deregulation written by Paul S. Dempsey and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1989-09-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author discusses the question of federal preemption of intrastate transportation and the experience of intrastate deregulation in some states. He examines the issue of whether more deregulation is in the public interest and, if economic deregulation is to be retained, what form it should take. The author's summary and conclusions can be the basis for study of the effects of economic deregulation in the transportation industry. This book can be a resource for executives dealing with deregulation in such industries as: transportation, telecommunications, broadcasting, electric utilities, cable television, oil and gas, and securities and banking. Defense Transportation Journal This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the social nd economic consequences of one of America's most important infrastructure industries--transportation. Dr. Dempsey traces the legal and political movement from regulation to deregulation. He proceeds to review the empirical results of a decade of deregulation upon airlines, railroads, trucking, and bus companies, and the effects of deregulation upon the shipping and traveling public that rely upon them. The book begins with an analysis of the events that led our nation to establish a regime of economic regulation upon the transportation industry. It also examines the metamorphosis toward deregulation and focuses on several areas in which there has been a significant adverse impact, including economic efficiency, pricing, service, and safety. Dempsey's book addresses the question of federal preemption of intrastate transportation and the experience of intrastate deregulation in some states. Dempsey further examines the issue of whether more deregulation is in the public interest and, if economic regulation is to be retained, what form it should take. The book concludes with an analysis of the public interest in transportation, focusing upon the policy objectives essential in accomplishing social and economic goals beyond allocative efficiency. This book is a necessary resource for executives dealing with deregulation in such industries as: transportation, telecommunications, broadcasting, electric utilities, cable television, oil and gas, and securities and banking.

This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most serious environmental problems of the twenty-first century have the potential to alter the course of life on this planet. Global warming, toxic waste, water and air pollution, acid rain, and shrinking energy supplies are frightening challenges that may threaten our future if we do not face up to them. Global Environmental Challenges provides important information and gives us hope about the environment. This book first helps us to grasp these difficulties, then shows us the choices we can make. How long to leave a light on, whether to take the car, the train, or bicycle to work, whether to recycle or throw away, whether to vote to curb continued suburban sprawl-all of these decisions can make a difference. This collection of some of the best essays and articles on the environment comes from a variety of sources, including journals, magazines, websites of ecological/conservation organizations, and other publications. Five major sections investigate the interaction of population growth, consumption, and environment; the emerging crisis in freshwater around the globe; global climate and atmosphere (including global warming); biodiversity loss; and the concept of sustainable development-using natural resources to place future human development on a sustainable path. The final section on sustainable development reveals how we can take action. As individuals, we can make a difference readily and easily without making huge personal sacrifices. As societies, we can work together in a global community of interest to sustain the earth. This valuable resource offers readers a better understanding of our environmental problems and presents solutions to improving the health of the planet.
