Abstract
This Article argues that a narrow economic perspective on restoration of natural resources is deeply flawed, both on theoretical and legal grounds. The use of economic value to determine the scope of restoration is not only inconsistent with the applicable statutes, but also is fundamentally irrational. The scope of restoration is essentially a scientific and legal decision—to reduce it to a mechanical comparison of economic values and costs misconstrues the nature of restoration and results in absurd conclusions.
