Description:Ohio's Lake Erie coastal area supports a range of recreational activities. Fishing, pleasure boating, swimming, and sightseeing are among the many water-based attractions. These attractions, along with amusement parks, new and improved shopping areas, and parks, represent the core of the region's growing tourism industry. For the past few years, increasing concern for the non- native zebra mussel has motivated researchers to take a closer look at its potential impact on recreational activities and other water-based industries. To begin an examination of the economic costs of the zebra mussel, a survey, reported here, was developed in 1991 to explore behavioral responses of Lake Erie those recreating to the zebra mussel. The purpose of this study was to set the stage for a more comprehensive analysis of the recreational costs of the zebra mussel; that study is currently in progress.
