(1) Impacts of the groundwater contamination on any public or private water supply for drinking water;

(3) Impact of the groundwater contamination on any natural spring, or any water which contributes to a natural spring, which is recognized for its recreational or aesthetic value and located in a state park, national park, conservation area, or any area protected by a conservation easement;
(4) The appropriateness of natural attenuation and other methods to remediate the groundwater contamination; and
(5) Any other scientific factors the commission deems relevant.
