The first is the quantitative analysis of the impact of tourist flows to Akaroa on the town's water supply services and wastewater management services. The second is the quantitative analysis of the impact of tourist flows to Akaroa on the town's solid waste management services. The third component is the investigation of the way in which water supply, wastewater and solid waste systems are funded. This analysis investigates whether there are alternative funding systems that are more efficient, moderate demands, and are more equitable than present funding systems. It also considers how best to allocate any additional costs of water supply if there is growth in tourist numbers.pp.1-101entourismenvironmental impactwater resourceswastewater managementsolid waste managementeconomic issuesinfrastructureAkaroawater supplyOtherMarsden::350500 TourismMarsden::340209 Public sector economicsMarsden::300804 Environmental impact assessmentANZSRC::1506 Tourism
