(d) the construction or alteration of the obstruction in such manner as to lessen the danger;

(e) the permanence of the obstruction;

(f) The anticipated development in the foreseeable future of the area which may be affected by the obstruction; and,

(g) such other factors as are in harmony with the purposes of the Act and these rules.
