| (C) the formation water present in the exempted portion
of the aquifer would be suitable for any use to which it was reasonably
suited prior to mining; and
(D) further restoration efforts would consume energy,
water, or other natural resources of the state without providing a
corresponding benefit to the state.
(3) If the restoration table is amended, stability
sampling shall be repeated and conducted as described in subsection
(f) of this section, except that only the parameters that were amended
in accordance with this subsection will be sampled and a period of
two calendar years must elapse between cessation of restoration operations
and the final set of stability samples unless the permittee can demonstrate
through modeling or other means that a period of less than two years
is appropriate for a demonstration of stability.
(4) If the request for an amendment of the restoration
table or range table values is not granted, the permittee shall restart
restoration efforts.
