“…The judgments of the experts are synthesized into a single one by geometric mean to achieve a general priority for each criterion. The same thing occurred in several other kinds of investigations in which the AHP method was used for the issues like prioritizing the activities supporting rural development in Chile (Oddershede et al, 2007), weighting driving factors in the urban growth of Kathmandu valley, Nepal (Thapa & Murayama, 2010), prioritizing urban sustainability indicators (Michael et al, 2013), discovering public choice on water service management (Ruiz‐Villaverde et al, 2013), determining the pedestrians' mental satisfaction (Shafabakhsh et al, 2015) and evaluating stakeholder's participation on the integrated water resources management (Thungngern et al, 2017). Thus, a wide range of interviews with various groups of experts has been performed to get a consensus over the drivers' values and alternatives.…”

With the economic expansion and population growth, water basins have encountered environmental issues, and water basin protection and sustainability have achieved more importance. This study aimed to provide a method to develop sustainable plans for water resources. Thus, it needs to determine the sustainability criteria of a water basin plan and then rank them in terms of their role in the basin sustainability. Using the Analytic Hierarchy Process, the criteria were prioritized by experts with relevant knowledge and experience. The results revealed that in weighting the sustainability factors of the water basin plan, judgments by academics were affected by their fields of interest, and practitioners' choices reflected their organization's scopes and responsibilities. Considering the differences that emerged over the prioritizations of sustainability dimensions, built environment and ecological sub-factors, it suggests a flexible method for developing the basin plans which is open to future changes.
