  2. That granting such temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction would bewithout sufficient corresponding public benefit.

(3) Notwithstanding any other provision in this section, no action for injunction may be taken where the source has obtained a renewable operating permit and conducts its operations in compliance with the permit terms, as provided in section 25-7-114.4 (3).
