Ohio Rev. Code § 106.022
If the joint committee on agency rule review makes a finding with regard to a proposed rule under section 106.021 of the Revised Code, and also finds that it nevertheless would be worthwhile to afford the agency an opportunity to revise the proposed rule, the joint committee, as an alternative to recommending the adoption of a concurrent resolution to invalidate the proposed rule, may authorize the agency to revise and refile the proposed rule and rule summary and fiscal analysis. The joint committee shall issue the authorization in writing. In the authorization, the joint committee shall explain the finding that, but for the authorization, would have resulted in a recommendation of invalidation, and shall explain why the joint committee has found it nevertheless to be worthwhile to afford the agency an opportunity to revise the proposed rule. The joint committee shall transmit the authorization electronically to the agency, the secretary of state, the director of the legislative service commission, and, if the proposed rule is to replace an emergency rule, the governor.
When the joint committee approves such an authorization, the running of the time within which a concurrent resolution invalidating the proposed rule may be adopted is tolled until the thirty-first day after the day on which the authorization was approved. If, during the tolling period, the agency revises and refiles the proposed rule, the time within which a concurrent resolution invalidating the proposed rule may be adopted resumes running and expires on the thirty-first day after the day the proposed rule was refiled. But if, during the tolling period, the agency neither withdraws nor revises and refiles the proposed rule, the time within which a concurrent resolution invalidating the proposed rule may be adopted resumes running and expires on the thirty-first day after the day the tolling period ended.
Upon receiving the authorization, the agency may revise the proposed rule and rule summary and fiscal analysis, and then refile the revised proposed rule and rule summary and fiscal analysis electronically with the joint committee.
If the joint committee makes any of the findings outlined in section 106.021 of the Revised Code with regard to the revised proposed rule and rule summary and fiscal analysis, the joint committee may recommend the adoption of a concurrent resolution to invalidate the proposed rule under section 106.021 of the Revised Code. The joint committee may issue only one authorization with regard to the same proposed rule.
Except as provided in section 107.43 of the Revised Code, if the proposed rule that is the subject of an authorization is to replace an emergency rule, the governor may issue an order extending the emergency rule for an additional one hundred twenty days after the day on which the emergency rule otherwise would become invalid. The governor shall transmit the order electronically to the agency, the joint committee, and the director of the legislative service commission.
