OPW may add up to 4.0 priority value points on one or more of the nominated projects so as to achieve priority ranking order that is consistent with overall state water resources management plans and to insure that a minimum of 5 percent and a maximum of 30 percent of the recommended priority project funds in each fiscal year is allocated to projects in each of the eight planning commission districts. OPW shall also add priority value points to specific projects, if necessary, so that the first projects in priority order on the list are one project from each of the eight regional planning districts nominating projects for priority of funding.
