Facilities in harbors and connecting waterways established under the provisions of this division shall be open to all on equal and reasonable terms; provided that the department may authorize construction of separate facilities and reasonable allocations within the same harbor for separate use by commercial and recreational vessels, and project funding may not be denied solely on the basis that such separate facilities and allocations for such separate use within the same harbor is required by a regulatory agency so long as such requirement is determined by the director, after consultation with the affected regulatory agencies, to be reasonable.
