    	(c)  The director may, upon proper application, issue a permit for activities described in 11 AAC 18.010(2) - (11) if he or she determines that

    		(2) the event is of such nature or duration that it cannot reasonably be accommodated in the particular location applied for, considering such things as damage to park resources or facilities, impairment of a protected area's atmosphere, interference with program activities, or impairment of public use facilities; or  
    		(3) a prior application for a permit for the same time and place has been made that has been or will be granted and the activities authorized by that permit do not reasonably allow multiple occupancy of that particular area.
