compatibility with master plans, minimization of utility relocations, strategic value
to drainage basin, cost/benefit ratio, land recovery from flood plain,
environmental enhancement, neighborhood enhancement, reduction in health
hazards, minimization of future maintenance, and fit with other operations and
programs; and
