Abstract
As we have observed at the end of Chapter 3 that, in order to protect or restore the Isahaya Bay wetland (IBW) it is important to value its worth, this chapter aims to estimate the environmental value of the Isahaya Bay Wetland using contingent valuation method (CVM) and to compare the total WTP with the variation in WTP calculated on the basis of closeness to the project site, age and income of the re- spondents.
