(1) having a significant impact on air quality and located in areas where the ambient particulate standard either is not attained or will not be maintained without emission limitations in addition to those set forth in this rule; and
(2) required to comply with the prevention of significant deterioration requirements of 326 IAC 2. These limitations shall be established in construction and operation permits issued in accordance with the procedures set forth in 326 IAC 2.
(i) (j) If the emission limitations established in subsections (a) through (g) for facilities that were operating or under construction on August 7, 1980, impose a severe economic hardship on any individual source, then the source may petition the commissioner for reconsideration of the limitations. If the source can demonstrate to the commissioner's satisfaction that a severe hardship will be caused if the applicable requirements in this section are enforced, then less restrictive emission limitations may be established by the commissioner, provided the less restrictive limitations will guarantee the attainment and maintenance of the particulate ambient air quality standards established by 326 IAC 1-3.
