“…While some critical reviews on the effect of air pollution control regulations on land use planning have discussed issues regarding the socio-economic impacts of constraining land use in the name of air quality, on one hand, the others deal with conflicting environmental goals and optimal allocation of land to achieve local and regional growth (Roberts et al, 1975). Adequate researches on integrating land use planning and meta-level air pollution levels have established the connection between land-use changes, spatial density, distribution of contribution of air pollutants, ventilation effects and thermal landscape (Basagaña, Rivera, Aguilera, Agis, & Bouso, 2012;Romero, Ihl, Rivera, Zalazar, & Azocar, 1999;Weng & Yang, 2006).…”

The published published research research plans plans of of the the US US Environmental Environmental Protection Protection Agency Agency (EPA) (EPA) and and the the US US Energy Energy Research Research and and Development Development Administration Administration (ERDA) (ERDA) have have each each been been criticized criticized by by the the Office Office of of Technology Technology Assessment Assessment for for focusing focusing largely largely on on the the development development of of technological technological "hardware" and and giving giving little little attention attention to to socioeconomic socioeconomic research research (broadly (broadly defined). defined). This This paper paper first first examines examines "hardware" socioeconomic socioeconomic research research areas areas that that EPA EPA might might be be expec ted ted to to cover, cover, and and shows shows that that its its plans plans for for doing doing so so are are inadequate. inadequate. The The paper paper then then identifies identifies gaps gaps in in ERDA ERDA's S coverage coverage of of socioeconomic socioeconomic research research that that remain remain unfilled unfilled even even in in the the agency's agency S updated updated plan. plan. Several Several reasons reasons for for this this neglect neglect of of socioeconomic socioeconomic research research are are hypothesized, hypothesized, namely: namely: the the dominance dominance of of research research management management by by scientists scientists technologists; the the apparent apparent irrelevance irrelevance expecand and technologists,' and/or and/or lack lack per-of of success success of of socioeconomic socioeconomic research research per past; formed formed in in the the pasti the the greater greater political political acceptability acceptability of of technological technological compared compared with with non-technological non-technological ap-ap proaches proaches to to pollution pollution control: control: the the public's public's apparent apparent faith faith in in our our ability ability to to develop develop technological technological solutions solutions to to energy energy and and environmental environmental problems,• and and the the compatibil ity ity of of new new technology technology development development with with economic economic growth. growth.
