    12  the state;
    13    c. the effect of airport improvement and  revitalization  projects  on
    14  investment in general aviation operations within the state;
    15    d.  an analysis of the tax burden imposed on general aviation entities
    16  within the state as opposed to other states and its impact on investment

    19  investment in general aviation services.
