IV-1 SECTION IV Index of Strategies by Implementation Timeframe and Relative Cost Exhibit IV-1 provides a classification of strategies according to the expected timeframe and relative cost for this emphasis area. In several cases, the implementation time will depend on such factors as the speed with which enabling legislation is passed. For strategies where most states require enabling legislation, we have assumed a long timeframe for implementation. Once legislation is enacted, the time required to implement the strategy will vary substantially across these strategies. For strategies requiring legislation that most states already have in effect, we have estimated the time needed simply to implement the strategy. The range of costs may also vary depending on how states choose to implement these strategies. Placement in the table below is meant to reflect the most common expected application of the strategy.

Most states already have legislation allowing these strategies to be implemented; estimate is for time to implement a thorough program to carry out the intent of the legislation. Other states will need to address the question legislatively before the strategy can be applied, thereby making these strategies long term.
