The regulatory authority shall establish guidelines for a determination of the scale or extent of a revision request for which all permit application information requirements and procedures, including notice and hearings, shall apply: *Provided,* That any revisions which propose significant alterations in the reclamation plan shall, at a minimum, be subject to notice and hearing requirements. ####
