Looks relatively moderate profile for a pale ale water. It will work fine.
I would not reduce the sulfate levels and I think that a little bit of magnesium adds to the bitterness perception.
The table salt adds a bit of roundness, but shouldn't be overdone. The level proposed is almost inconsequential. Don't take the chloride level much higher or it will clash with the sulfate.
I've just recently noticed that even my hoppy beers are better with less CaSo4, and I like low magnesium water for brewing, so that's just my two cents. I think a high level of alkalinity and high sulfate can make a beer taste harshly bitter not good hoppy bitter, if that makes sense.
