WAC 136-165-030   County road administration board evaluation, consideration and action.  (1) In deciding whether to grant a request for a RATA allocation increase submitted under the provisions of WAC 136-165-020, the county road administration board will consider the following factors:

     (a) Whether the county, at the time of preparing its final project prospectus, considered the factors listed in WAC 136-165-020(4);

     (b) Whether the county's request for an increased allocation is based on extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances of the type listed in WAC 136-165-020(5);

     (c) Whether it is feasible to reduce the scope and/or project limits so the project can be substantially constructed within the initial RATA allocation;

     (d) Whether the request is to pay for an expansion of the project; and

     (e) Whether the increased allocation will have an adverse effect on other approved or requested RATA funded projects.

     (2) If the county road administration board finds that an increase in RATA funds for a previously approved project is justified, some or all of the requested increase may be allocated.
