B. No agency of the state government shall authorize or concur in plans of local or federal agencies that would detrimentally affect whether, directly or indirectly, a natural or scenic river or upon which the full and equal consideration of the stream's potential as a natural or scenic area with aesthetic values has not been discussed and evaluated.
