If rankings obtained by IGs are additionally aggregated at the WC level (without any new voting), in a way that only top-3 ranked are newly approved, then according to Table 9, the final result is:
There is a tie for two best-ranked alternatives: Plan 1 (Balance) and Plan 5 (Other Users). Assuming no additional voting is allowed, both plans could be considered the WC's final choice.
Third-ranked is Plan 2 (Supply).
The least desired are Plan 3 (Irrigation) and Plan 4 (Payment).
