There will never be "consistency" in priorities because the funds are 
distributed based upon the political power of the elected representatives of that 
particular state - it is called PORK!  Numerous "lower priority" sites have had 
millions of dollars spent on them because the CongressPersons from that state 
raised a ruckus and got the Services (Corps) to cave in. 

In an ideal world, funds would be distributed on risk based priorities - 
ain't going to happen.
