Abstract :
Gini coefficient has been widely used for evaluation the balance and fairness of a target relative to another index of the status quo, but the reports related to planning analysis are limited. In this paper, we set up balance distribution optimal model for the plan of total control of environmental pollutants, and then take a region of North China as a case to apply the supposed model indecision making supports. The result shows that the new model is available for decision making and analysis the balance and fairness of the plan.
