2.27 	license use, or program guidelines, the participant may apply for conditional reinstatement 
2.28 	of the driver's license, subject to the ignition interlock restriction. If the program 
2.29 	participant's ignition interlock device subsequently registers a positive breath alcohol 
2.30 	concentration of 0.02 or higher, the commissioner shall cancel the driver's license, and the 
2.31 	program participant may apply for another limited license according to this paragraph.
