(3)Has water of sufficient quality and quantity to be deemed worthy of protection;
(4)Has a relatively natural setting and adequate open space;
(5)Requires some coordinated plan of management in order to enhance and preserve the river area; and
(6)Has some lands along its length already in public ownership, or the possibility for purchase or dedication of public access and/or scenic easements.
