... 4.0 REGIONAL STRATEGIES PROGRAM TOURISM EXPENDITllRE WORKSHEET One of the objectives of this research was to identify existing tools.for determining the economic impacts of transportation investments. During the preliminary survey of select DOTs and STOs one such economic approach was submitted by the Oregon Tourism Division.

... The procedure was developed by Dean Runyan and Associates and revised slightly by the Regional Strategies Section. The procedure should be applied to each of the tourism-related projects in your ~ 987-89 biennium approved regional strategy as part of your "Strategy Assessment" and "Biannual Report".

... -- -I-~ -my ~ r - -J- - - - - ~ - - Adjust visitor expenditure levels, if necessary, to properly represent the types of visitors attracted. if your project or program specifically targets a particular type of visitor, e.g., a camper or a charter boat angler, use a per-day expenditure figure for that particular type of traveler if such information is available.
From page 113...
... This approach implies that a causal relationship exists: the project will lead to net new visitation, leading in {urn to expenditure and employment gains. If demand exists or can be generated in Oregon's primary travel markets, then the assumption is reasonable that facilities or programs will lead to additional visitor volume and the associated economic impacts.
