Ohio Admin. Code 3701-25-02 - Responsibilities of the board of health
(A)
Pre-approval
requirements. Prior to issuing a permit to operate a newly constructed,
substantially altered or existing unlicensed resident camp, the board of health
shall review and either accept or not accept plans that have been submitted in
accordance with this chapter.
(B)
Site evaluation.
To determine its suitability, the board of health shall evaluate the location
for a newly constructed, substantially altered or existing unlicensed resident
camp and prepare and sign a written site evaluation report. The report shall
include at a minimum, topography, soil conditions, previous uses, and available
utilities for the resident camp.
(C)
Plan review. The
board of health shall, within thirty days of receiving a complete plan review
package for review, either approve or disapprove the plans in writing or, in
the case of incomplete plans, request additional information. If additional
information is requested, the board of health shall approve or disapprove the
plans within thirty days after receiving the additional requested information.
If the board of health does not receive a response to the request for
additional information within forty-five days, the board of health shall
disapprove the package.
(1)
Plan approval. Except as otherwise provided in this
rule, a written plan approval issued for a resident camp shall be valid for two
years after the date on which the approval was issued. One extension may be
granted for a period of up to one year, if it is found that the applicant for
plan approval has made a good faith effort to complete the construction or
substantial alteration, but has failed to complete it for reasons beyond the
applicant's control. A request for an extension shall be filed in writing
before the plan approval has expired.
(2)
Plan expiration.
If the construction or substantial alteration has not been completed within the
two-year period, or within the limit of any extension granted under this rule,
the plans shall be resubmitted.
(3)
Plan disapproval.
The board of health may disapprove plans if the applicant for plan approval
fails to comply with, or the proposed construction or substantial alteration
fails to comply with any rule of this chapter.
(4)
Hearing request.
Any applicant may appeal the disapproval of their plans in accordance with fair
hearing procedures adopted by the board of health.
(D)
Inspections. The
board of health shall have the right of entry and access to resident camps at
any reasonable time for the purpose of inspecting and investigating conditions
relating to the administration and enforcement of this chapter.
(1)
Before a permit
is initially issued and annually thereafter, or more often if necessary, the
board of health shall cause each resident camp to be inspected relative to
compliance with this chapter.
(2)
A record shall be
made of each inspection.
(E)
Permitting. The
board of health shall process complete applications to operate a resident
campground, within thirty days of receipt. The board of health shall either
issue a permit or respond to the applicant regarding the application.
(1)
Applications for
permit renewal shall be received in April of each year.
(2)
Each permit
issued shall be effective from the date of issuance until the last day of April
each year.
