(c) Where commissioner certification of a rule or rule amendment takes place after the effective date of a rule or rule amendment, the provisions of § 29.32 of this chapter will be considered to be in effect to limit commissioner review of an agency action listed in § 29.11(a) of this chapter (relating to Actions and Rules Subject to the Coastal Management Program) provided:

(1) the agency files a request for certification of the rule or rule amendment within seven days of the date of adoption;

(2) the action is undertaken pursuant to the rule or rule amendment for which certification is sought; and

(3) the action was initiated after the rule or rule amendment was adopted and before the commissioner acted on the request for certification.
