The OAC will hold a public hearing for the purpose of accepting testimony on the proposed new administrative rule 3379-9-02. The hearing will be held Thursday, May 17 at 11:00 a.m., in Room 420 on the 4th floor of the Rhodes State Office Tower, 30 East Broad Street, Columbus, 43215. The hearing will continue until all parties in attendance, at that time, have had an opportunity to provide comment.
