17. Draw a graph to illustrate the market equilibrium. On your graph, show the efficient quantity of water taken.
18. If the government sets a quota on the total amount of water such that the spring is used efficiently, what would that quota be?
19. If the government issues ITQs to land owners m that limit the total amount of water taken to the efficient quantity, what is the market price of an ITQ?
