Papers, 1963-1981 (bulk 1975-1978)

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/60523246

Papers of a professor of economics at Bowdoin College, reflecting his participation in studies and on committees about several proposed electric power projects in Maine in the 1970's. Projects included the Dickey-Lincoln School Lakes Project and the possibility of power output from the tides in Passamaquoddy Bay. The material from his work as a member of the Citizens' Dickey-Lincoln Project Impact Review Committee consists of records of committee meetings, correspondence, and reports which reflect the work of the committee. Shipman's files on his study of the feasibility of a tidal power project in Cobscook Bay include notes, reports, newspaper clippings and a draft of his final report on the benefits and costs of such a project. The collection also contains reports from a symposium held in 1979 in which Professor Shipman discussed "Identifying an appropriate measure of benefits for evaluating tidal power in Cobscook Bay."
