(c) if the proponent received a copy of comments on the proposal under section 10—must include with the resubmitted proposal:
(i) a summary of all comments received; and
(ii) an assessment of the merits of each objection or claim in those comments about the project or any activity that is part of the project; and
(iii) a statement of the proponent’s response, or proposed response, to each objection or claim, including a demonstration of the changes, if any, that have been made to the proposal as a result of an objection or claim.
