In keeping with the purposes of this subchapter, the public policies and plans that may be formulated by the Environmental Quality Board shall be submitted immediately after their preliminary approval to the Planning Board so as to determine their conformance with the integral-development policies and strategies the Planning Board may have adopted.
The results of this examination shall be reported to the Environmental Quality Board within a term of not more than thirty (30) days reckoning from the date of notice. If this term of thirty (30) days has not been extended in consideration of the complex nature of the matter under examination, or if the Planning Board has not made any pronouncement, it shall be deemed that they are in conformity with the integral-development policies and strategies of the Planning Board.
If no mutual agreement is reached between both agencies as to the proposals offered, the policies and plans preliminarily approved by the Environmental Quality Board shall be submitted, with the positions assumed by the latter and by the Planning Board, to the Governor. The Governor shall, if he deems it necessary, appoint a committee of three (3) persons to study the positions of both agencies. The Governor shall take the proper final action.
