discusses how the export-base approach can be used to study the interactions among (1) the magnitude of economic development (i.e., the creation of jobs), (2) the resulting spatial location of workers and their dependents, and (3) subsequent demands for services. Section 4 specifies the economic and demographic problems and implications particular to SPS rectenna siting that need more detailed examination using the approach set forth in the previous section. After a brief description of the SPS concept and a statement of justification for concentration on the rectenna element of SPS, Sec. 4 focuses on the predeployment impact of population displacement and the post-deployment impact of industrial and population relocation. Section 4 also deals with the issues of public acceptance and international mobility as they relate to rectennae siting in the U.S. Based on the review of literature and identification of the economic and demographic Implications of SPS, Sec. 5 identifies short-term assessment work that should be undertaken in FY 1979 and some long-term basic research topics that need to be addressed in FY 1980 and beyond.
