Center for Community Growth and ChangeClemson University’s Center for Community Growth and Change developed the Reedy River Master Plan Project under the joint sponsorship of the City and County of Greenville. The project emphasized public input and participation to develop a master plan that will serve as a framework for development within a sixteen-mile stretch of the Reedy River, spanning from the river’s headwaters in Travelers Rest to Lake Conestee. The proposed master plan provides guidance to both public and private sectors, defining areas for various types of land uses (i.e., open space, active recreation, commercial, residential, etc.) surrounding land uses, infrastructure, river and land characteristics, and natural resource considerations.Publication 2011 survey of marine recreationists' attitudes towards potential offshore wind energy in South Carolina : final report(2012-01) Brownlee, Matthew T.

Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics; South Carolina Agriculture and Forestry Research SystemThe objectives of this report are: 1. To estimate the microeconomic performance of representative owner/operators in the South Carolina shrimp trawler industry, under current conditions; 2. To simulate possible effects of the shrimp-baiting fishery on the economic viability of the South Carolina shrimp trawler industry; 3. To estimate the economic impacts of potential reductions in the South Carolina shrimp trawler fleet on the South Carolina coastal economy under scenarios of sustained reductions in commercial landings.Publication Identifying competencies possessed and skills needed of entry-level college graduate agribusiness employees(2006-02) Miller, Stephen E.; Clemson University. Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics; Fredendall, Lawrtence D.; Ferreira, Wilder N.; Nilson, Linda B.The objective of this research is to determine what weaknesses and strengths agribusiness managers observe in their recent agricultural and business college-graduate employees. That is, we seek to identify “gaps” between the knowledge, skill, ability, and trait areas (KSATs) of entry-level college graduate employees and the KSATs required for successful careers in agribusiness. We do so by conducting a nationwide survey of agribusiness firms.Publication Evaluation and demonstration of the use of processed forest biomass in bioretention cells along South Carolina's highways : final report to the South Carolina Forestry Commission(2006-05) Templeton, Scott R.; Clemson University.

Regional Economic Analysis Laboratory; Carey, Robert T.This study examines the impact that exempting military pension income from South Carolina income tax would have on the state’s economy as well as state and local net government revenues. The model uses dy-namic scoring, that is, it accounts for the impact from economic changes predicted to result from the change in tax policy feeding back into state and local government revenue. This report assumes the implementation of a full exemption following the 2020 sunset of SC Act 272 of 2016.Publication State of basin report : status of blue crabs in South Carolina(2012-04) Clemson University.

Department of Agricultural and Applied EconomicsThis study estimates the impact of school quality on property values within the city limits of Greenville, South Carolina. This study differs from others in its use of a relative, rather that an absolute measure of school quality. We apply a hedonic pricing model to estimate the impact of K-12 rankings on the real constant-quality housing values. Based on 3,731 housing transactions carried out from 1994 to 2000, our results suggest that those who choose to live within the city limits of the study pay a premium to live in high quality school attendance areas. Therefore, high-ranked schools have values capitalized into single-family house prices. Further, greater distance to assigned K-12 schools has a negative impact on the value of the property.Publication Indicators of inhabitant, household, family and economic growth : South Carolina and North Carolina(2000-04) McLean, Edward L.; Roper, Cindy G.; Clemson University.

The first objective was to precisely and thoroughly account for all of the expenses of previous design-bid and design-bid-build projects. The second objective was to rigorously analyze the effects of stream length, location, and other project characteristics on the contractual expense of these projects.Publication Economic impacts of California's golf course facilities in 2000(2002-12) Templeton, Scott R.; Clemson University.
