Rule 4741-1-18 OAC
As a result of recently enacted legislation and an Executive Order by the Governor, Rule 4741-1-18 OAC regarding military experience and exemption has been revised to define "military" and extend the period for submitting continuing education hours for renewal. Rule 4741-1-18 OAC already waived renewal fees for active duty military veterinarians and registered veterinary technicians. The rule now reflects the definition of military and the Board's leniency for continuing education in compliance with Ohio Revised Code Section 5903.12 http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/5903.12 and Section 5903.121 http://codes.ohio.gov/orc/5903.121.
