The Case For, or Against, New Orleans
Sometimes one’s choices may involve catastrophic decisions
and bear great risk and yet there can be no clear answer. For
example, if a person gets a divorce, shutters a plant, sells a
losing investment, or closes their business, will he or she be
better off? The following case incorporates nearly all of the
material you have covered this far and presents an example of
one such choice where nearly all of the alternatives have a
significant downside risk.
Review the following information from the article “A Cost-
Benefit Analysis of the New Orleans Flood Protection System”
by Stéphane Hallegatte (2005):
· Hallegatte, an environmentalist, assigns a probability (p) of a
Katrina-like hurricane of 1/130 in his cost-benefit analysis for
flood protection. However, the levees that protect New Orleans
also put other regions at greater risk. You may assume the
frequency of other floods is greater than Katrina-like events
(Vastag & Rein, 2011).
· The new levees that were built in response to Katrina cost
approximately fourteen billion dollars (in 2010). This is in
addition to the direct costs of Katrina (eighty-one billion dollars
in 2005).
· 50 percent of New Orleans is at or below sea level.
· A 100-year event means that there is a 63 percent chance that
such an event will occur within a 100-year period.
· The following are the interested (anchored and/or biased)
6. constituencies:
· Residents of New Orleans—both those that can move and
those who cannot move
· Residents of the surrounding floodplains at risk from New
Orleans levees
· The Mayor of New Orleans
· The federal government—specifically taxpayers and the
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
Assume that the availability heuristics makes people more risk
averse (populations drop, at least in the short term). Consider
how this would affect the local economy.
You are an analyst at FEMA and are in charge of developing a
recommendation for both the state and the local governments on
whether or not to redevelop New Orleans.
Write a report with your recommendation. Address the
following in your report:
Part A
· Analyze the economics of New Orleans in light of the above
parameters and develop your own Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA)
for rebuilding.
· Evaluate the value of the CBA for each constituency and
integrate these estimates into a scenario model and/or decision
tree. Analyze the results.
· Clearly each of these constituencies may both overlap and be
prey to a variety of group dynamics internally. For one of these
options, discuss the decision pitfalls to which they may be
susceptible and make a recommendation on how to alleviate
these pressures.
· Starting with your CBA, estimate the relevant expected utility
for the interested constituencies.
Note: You need not have absolute amounts but your relevant
utilities should be proportional to one another. Hint: If you
assume that your total CBA for New Orleans is fixed for each
constituency (do not forget the overlaps), then each
constituency will have a piece of the utility pie.
Part B
7. · Make a case for or against rebuilding the city of New Orleans.
This should be an executive summary; be concise and brief.
Include exhibits.
· Whether you are for or against, discuss how social heuristics
could be used to your advantage, both ethically and unethically,
in making your case. You may choose to fill the role of one of
the constituents, if you prefer.
Write an 8–10-page report in Word format. Apply APA
standards to citation of sources. Use proper spelling and
grammar throughout, and keep the text legible and balanced
with visuals.
