We propose the river pollution claims problem to distribute a pollution budget among agents located along a river. A … location of pollution along the river is an important concern in addition to fairness. We characterize the class of externality … propose two novel axioms that are motivated by the river pollution context and use them to characterize two priority rules. …

First, if an optimal scheme to regulate environmental pollution is implemented, cities chosen by local … governments are never too large. They are too small if pollution is purely global, but at the optimal size, if pollution is purely …
