In developing a land use policy for the state, the Office of Planning and Research shall cooperate with the Department of Transportation and other federal, state, regional, and local agencies in their development of a viable, feasible, and attainable long-range master plan for aviation that will provide a framework for discussions, a program of accomplishments, and a means to resolve the complex problems of air transportation in California. Such policy and plan shall be guided by the environmental goals and policies of the State Environmental Goals and Policy Report (Section 65041).

The office shall advise the Legislature, from time to time, of long-range budgetary projections of the state’s share of the costs relating to the development of new airports and related communities. The projections and information relating to airports shall be provided by the Department of Transportation.
