Figure 10-9. Goals hierarchy for reservoir siting example. 10-14 Section 10 -- Examples
Many measures represented counts of the number of impacts in different categories. These category counts were converted to "equivalent" counts of the most significant category. Expert judgments were obtained of the count in each category representing an impact equivalent to one unit in the most significant category. These equivalent counts were then used when developing tradeoffs involving these measures. For example, the Prehistoric Sites measure counted the number of sites of different types that would be affected at each reservoir location. The experts categorized the types of prehistoric sites as shown in Figure 10-10. The most significant category of prehistoric sites was "residential base sites with interpretive value." The overall level for the prehistoric sites measure was reported in units of "equivalent number of residential base sites with interpretive value affected." Sites in the other categories were converted to those units by multiplying the number of sites by the number in the last column of Figure 10-10. For example, 20 processing sites would be the equivalent of two residential bases with interpretive value. A site with 1 residential base with interpretive value and 20 processing sites would thus be assigned an overall level of 1 + (20*0.1) = 3 on the prehistoric sites measure.
