(3) Except as provided in subrule (4) of this rule, a plan submitted by an intermediate school district and approved by the superintendent of public instruction shall remain in effect until the intermediate school district submits modifications that the intermediate school district deems necessary to the department and the modifications are approved by the superintendent of public instruction.

(4) The department may require an intermediate school district to modify its plan if, after the effective date of the individuals with disabilities education act, 20 U.S.C. §1400 et seq., the provisions of that act, its regulations, 34 C.F.R. 300.1, et seq., 1976 PA 451, MCL 380.1 et seq. or these rules are amended, there is a new interpretation of any of these laws or regulations by the United States Department of Education, the department, or court, or the department finds noncompliance.
