b. Upon application of an owner, the commissioner may waive, modify or postpone the application of a regulation to the owner's facility, provided, however, that no such waiver, modification or postponement shall be granted unless the commissioner shall find that (1) Strict compliance with a regulation would result in undue hardship for residents of the facility, and (2) If granted, it would not unreasonably jeopardize the welfare of residents or of the public at large.
