No project may be approved that would result in a net loss of recreation opportunities. Scenic and aesthetic values shall be maintained or enhanced. In order to approve an application, the Director shall apply the following standards:

(1)

Project facilities will be designed, located and operated to substantially avoid visible or audible intrusion on the natural setting integral to existing recreational facilities, activities or opportunities.

(2)

The proposed project will not reduce the abundance or variety of recreational facilities or opportunities available in the project vicinity.

(3)

Unavoidable adverse impacts on nonwater dependent recreation facilities, activities or opportunities will be mitigated in the project vicinity by providing acceptable replacement facilities or opportunities of the same or similar nature and abundance.

(4)

The project will not have significant adverse impacts on any unique, unusual or distinct natural feature which provides the focus or attraction for non water dependent recreational facilities or activities.

(5)

Unavoidable adverse impacts on any water dependent recreational opportunity will be mitigated with acceptable replacement by or enhancement or another water dependent recreational opportunity available in the project vicinity.

(6)

The proposed project will not cause the loss of or significant adverse impact to any water dependent recreational opportunities of statewide significance.

(7)

Adverse impacts on any specific elements, such as flow regime, length of reach, access, season of use, degree of difficulty, of a water dependent recreational opportunity of statewide significance, will be offset by acceptable enhancement to other element(s) of the same water dependent recreational opportunity in the project vicinity.
