High Street, Columbus, Ohio, 43215. The purpose of this hearing is to consider rescinding current rule/adopting new rule 4751-1-01 of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC). Authorized by Revised Code (RC) 4751.04, this rule pertains to public notices concerning adoption, amendment, or rescission of rules.
