(1) During the PAL effective period, the department shall reopen the PAL permit to:
(A) correct typographical or calculation errors made in setting the PAL or reflect a more accurate determination of emissions used to establish the PAL;

(C) revise the PAL to reflect an increase in the PAL as provided under section 11 of this rule.

(2) The department has discretion to reopen the PAL permit to reduce the PAL as follows:

(C) If the department determines that a reduction is necessary to avoid causing or contributing to a NAAQS or PSD increment violation, or to an adverse impact on an air quality related value that has been identified for a federal Class I area by a federal land manager and for which information is available to the general public.

(3) Except for the permit reopening in subdivision (1)(A) for the correction of typographical or calculation errors that do not increase the PAL level, all other reopenings shall be conducted in accordance with the public participation requirements of section 5 of this rule.
