The BBTH was labeled as "not financially viable," by the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) in the initial evaluation and review of its Central Visayas office.

In defending its need and potential viability, Aumentado gave a 19-point justification on top of the two-megawatt (MW) projected load of the Panglao Bohol International Airport Development Project (PBIADP).

In a letter to Aumentado, NEDA Region 7 Director Marlene Rodriguez had said the backbone power transmission project "is not financially viable using a minimum load forecast scenario that already includes the 2-MW projected load" of the Panglao airport.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
