     3  ties and services[,] whether publicly  or  privately  owned,  developed,
     4  operated or maintained, excluding airports operated by a bi-state public
     5  benefit  corporation.    Such  plan  shall include a minimum twenty-year
     6  forecast period at the time of adoption, assess long-range  needs  span-

    27  are made. The department of  state  shall  review  such  plan  and  such
    28  revisions  and  shall submit a report thereon, together with such recom-
    29  mendations as it may deem appropriate, to the  governor,  the  temporary

    32  [and],  shall  serve  thereafter  as  a guide to the public and publicly
    33  assisted development of transportation facilities and  services  in  the
    34  state, and the  department shall maintain hard copies of the most recent
    35  version  of such plan and revisions thereto on file as a public document
    36  in the office of the commissioner and at each  regional  office  of  the
    37  department.
