Sec. 51.46  Reconsideration of objection at the instance of the Attorney General.

    (a) Where there appears to have been a substantial change in 
operative fact or relevant law, an objection may be reconsidered, if it 
is deemed appropriate, at the instance of the Attorney General.
    (b) Notice of such a decision to reconsider shall be given to the 
submitting authority, to any party who commented on the submission or 
requested notice of the Attorney General's action thereon, and to 
interested parties registered under Sec. 51.32, and the Attorney General 
shall decide whether to withdraw or to continue the objection only after 
such persons have had a reasonable opportunity to comment.
