This law is designed to establish a program that is responsive to citizens’ needs throughout the state while remaining secure from special interest pressure. The types of criteria considered in preparing the program include:

Safety factors User benefits Continuity of improvements Social Factors Aesthetic factors

Conservation factors Life expectancy Recreational factors Availability of state and federal funds Other relevant criteria
