If applicable, this shall include a determination that the Project does not meet the eligibility requirements for the RFLPP, or a recommendation that a Project, or portion thereof, might be more suitably acquired by a separate land acquisition program such as pursuant to Section 259.105(3)(b), F.S., and the goals and objectives of that program. When such a recommendation is made, the landowner shall be contacted and provided the reason why the Project is ineligible, or that another program may be appropriate.

(c) A recommended monitoring entity for the Project and a brief rationale for the recommendation, if said entity is different from the Department.

2. The property owner is willing to comply with the requirements of all entities or programs engaged in the partnership; and
3. Funding is or will be available from participating programs to cost-share the proposed Perpetual Easement.
