Notwithstanding Section 12639, if there are any major modifications or amendments to the plans that result in a substantial increase in the costs to the state for any estimated cost for the project, no money shall be reallocated by the state in aid of that portion of the project until the revised plans have been reviewed and approved by the department. The department shall approve the revised plans if the department determines that the benefits of the proposed works of improvement for the revised project will exceed the cost thereof and that the
