anhydrous ammonia either underground or in refrigerated | 134 |
structures. | 135 |
(B) For safety in the design, construction, location, | 140 |
installation, or operation of anhydrous ammonia systems for | 141 |
agricultural use. In addition, with regard to an anhydrous ammonia | 142 |
system that is used for agricultural purposes, the rules shall | 143 |

official sample of a fertilizer or mixed fertilizer and determined | 193 |
that it constitutes mislabeled fertilizer pursuant to rules | 194 |
adopted under section 905.40 or 905.44 of the Revised Code, as | 195 |
applicable, the person who labeled the fertilizer or mixed | 196 |
fertilizer shall pay a penalty to the consumer of the mislabeled | 197 |
fertilizer or, if the consumer cannot be determined with | 198 |
reasonable diligence or is not available, to the director to be | 199 |
credited to the pesticide, fertilizer, and lime program fund | 200 |
created under section 921.22 of the Revised Code. The amount of | 201 |

misdemeanor of the second degree for a first offense. On each | 247 |
subsequent offense the offender is guilty of a misdemeanor of the | 248 |
first degree. | 249 |
(3) Requirements governing the certification course required | 307 |
by division (C)(1) of this section. The rules shall specify the | 308 |
minimum contents of such a course, including public safety and | 309 |
health, animal life history, the use of nuisance wild animal | 310 |
removal and control devices, and the laws and rules governing | 311 |
those activities. The rules also shall specify who may conduct | 312 |
such a course. The rules shall require that, in order for an | 313 |
operator to receive a certification of completion, the operator | 314 |
shall pass an examination. | 315 |
Sec. 1533.10. Except as provided in this section or division | 326 |
(A)(2) of section 1533.12 or section 1533.73 or 1533.731 of the | 327 |
Revised Code, no person shall hunt any wild bird or wild quadruped | 328 |
without a hunting license. Each day that any person hunts within | 329 |
the state without procuring such a license constitutes a separate | 330 |
offense. Except as otherwise provided in this section, every | 331 |
applicant for a hunting license who is a resident of the state and | 332 |
eighteen years of age or more shall procure a resident hunting | 333 |
license or an apprentice resident hunting license, the fee for | 334 |
which shall be eighteen dollars unless the rules adopted under | 335 |
division (B) of section 1533.12 of the Revised Code provide for | 336 |
issuance of a resident hunting license to the applicant free of | 337 |
charge. Except as provided in rules adopted under division (B)(2) | 338 |
of that section, each applicant who is a resident of this state | 339 |
and who at the time of application is sixty-six years of age or | 340 |
older shall procure a special senior hunting license, the fee for | 341 |
which shall be one-half of the regular hunting license fee. Every | 342 |
applicant who is under the age of eighteen years shall procure a | 343 |
special youth hunting license or an apprentice youth hunting | 344 |
license, the fee for which shall be one-half of the regular | 345 |
hunting license fee. | 346 |
A resident of this state who owns lands in the state and the | 347 |
owner's children of any age and grandchildren under eighteen years | 348 |
of age may hunt on the lands without a hunting license. A resident | 349 |
of any other state who owns real property in this state, and the | 350 |
spouse and children living with the property owner, may hunt on | 351 |
that property without a license, provided that the state of | 352 |
residence of the real property owner allows residents of this | 353 |
state owning real property in that state, and the spouse and | 354 |
children living with the property owner, to hunt without a | 355 |
license. If the owner of land in this state is a limited liability | 356 |
company or a limited liability partnership that consists of three | 357 |
or fewer individual members or partners, as applicable, an | 358 |
individual member or partner who is a resident of this state and | 359 |
the member's or partner's children of any age and grandchildren | 360 |
under eighteen years of age may hunt on the land owned by the | 361 |
limited liability company or limited liability partnership without | 362 |
a hunting license. In addition, if the owner of land in this state | 363 |
is a trust that has a total of three or fewer trustees and | 364 |
beneficiaries, an individual who is a trustee or beneficiary and | 365 |
who is a resident of this state and the individual's children of | 366 |
any age and grandchildren under eighteen years of age may hunt on | 367 |
the land owned by the trust without a hunting license. The tenant | 368 |
and children of the tenant, residing on lands in the state, may | 369 |
hunt on them without a hunting license. | 370 |
Except as otherwise provided in division (A)(1) of section | 371 |
1533.12 of the Revised Code, every applicant for a hunting license | 372 |
who is a nonresident of the state and who is eighteen years of age | 373 |
or older shall procure a nonresident hunting license or an | 374 |
apprentice nonresident hunting license, the fee for which shall be | 375 |
one hundred twenty-four dollars unless the applicant is a resident | 376 |
of a state that is a party to an agreement under section 1533.91 | 377 |
of the Revised Code, in which case the fee shall be eighteen | 378 |
dollars. Apprentice resident hunting licenses, apprentice youth | 379 |
hunting licenses, and apprentice nonresident hunting licenses are | 380 |
subject to the requirements established under section 1533.102 of | 381 |
the Revised Code and rules adopted pursuant to it. | 382 |
The chief of the division of wildlife may issue a small game | 383 |
hunting license expiring three days from the effective date of the | 384 |
license to a nonresident of the state, the fee for which shall be | 385 |
thirty-nine dollars. No person shall take or possess deer, wild | 386 |
turkeys, fur-bearing animals, ducks, geese, brant, or any nongame | 387 |
animal while possessing only a small game hunting license. A small | 388 |
game hunting license or an apprentice nonresident hunting license | 389 |
does not authorize the taking or possessing of ducks, geese, or | 390 |
brant without having obtained, in addition to the small game | 391 |
hunting license or the apprentice nonresident hunting license, a | 392 |
wetlands habitat stamp as provided in section 1533.112 of the | 393 |
Revised Code. A small game hunting license or an apprentice | 394 |
nonresident hunting license does not authorize the taking or | 395 |
possessing of deer, wild turkeys, or fur-bearing animals. A | 396 |
nonresident of the state who wishes to take or possess deer, wild | 397 |
turkeys, or fur-bearing animals in this state shall procure, | 398 |
respectively, a deer or wild turkey permit as provided in section | 399 |
1533.11 of the Revised Code or a fur taker permit as provided in | 400 |
section 1533.111 of the Revised Code in addition to a nonresident | 401 |
hunting license, an apprentice nonresident hunting license, a | 402 |
special youth hunting license, or an apprentice youth hunting | 403 |
license, as applicable, as provided in this section. | 404 |
This section does not authorize the taking and possessing of | 408 |
deer or wild turkeys without first having obtained, in addition to | 409 |
the hunting license required by this section, a deer or wild | 410 |
turkey permit as provided in section 1533.11 of the Revised Code | 411 |
or the taking and possessing of ducks, geese, or brant without | 412 |
first having obtained, in addition to the hunting license required | 413 |
by this section, a wetlands habitat stamp as provided in section | 414 |
1533.112 of the Revised Code. | 415 |
No hunting license, other than an apprentice hunting license, | 425 |
shall be issued unless the applicant presents to the agent | 426 |
authorized to issue the license a previously held hunting license | 427 |
or evidence of having held such a license in content and manner | 428 |
approved by the chief, a certificate of completion issued upon | 429 |
completion of a hunter education and conservation course approved | 430 |
by the chief, or evidence of equivalent training in content and | 431 |
manner approved by the chief. A previously held apprentice hunting | 432 |
license does not satisfy the requirement concerning the | 433 |
presentation of a previously held hunting license or evidence of | 434 |
it. | 435 |
No person shall issue a hunting license, except an apprentice | 436 |
hunting license, to any person who fails to present the evidence | 437 |
required by this section. No person shall purchase or obtain a | 438 |
hunting license, other than an apprentice hunting license, without | 439 |
presenting to the issuing agent the evidence required by this | 440 |
section. Issuance of a hunting license in violation of the | 441 |
requirements of this section is an offense by both the purchaser | 442 |
of the illegally obtained hunting license and the clerk or agent | 443 |
who issued the hunting license. Any hunting license issued in | 444 |
violation of this section is void. | 445 |
The chief, with approval of the wildlife council, shall adopt | 446 |
rules prescribing a hunter education and conservation course for | 447 |
first-time hunting license buyers, other than buyers of apprentice | 448 |
hunting licenses, and for volunteer instructors. The course shall | 449 |
consist of subjects including, but not limited to, hunter safety | 450 |
and health, use of hunting implements, hunting tradition and | 451 |
ethics, the hunter and conservation, the law in section 1533.17 of | 452 |
the Revised Code along with the penalty for its violation, | 453 |
including a description of terms of imprisonment and fines that | 454 |
may be imposed, and other law relating to hunting. Authorized | 455 |
personnel of the division or volunteer instructors approved by the | 456 |
chief shall conduct such courses with such frequency and at such | 457 |
locations throughout the state as to reasonably meet the needs of | 458 |
license applicants. The chief shall issue a certificate of | 459 |
completion to each person who successfully completes the course | 460 |
and passes an examination prescribed by the chief. | 461 |
Sec. 1533.11. (A) Except as provided in this section or | 462 |
section 1533.731 of the Revised Code, no person shall hunt deer on | 463 |
lands of another without first obtaining an annual deer permit. | 464 |
Except as provided in this section, no person shall hunt wild | 465 |
turkeys on lands of another without first obtaining an annual wild | 466 |
turkey permit. Each applicant for a deer or wild turkey permit | 467 |
shall pay an annual fee of twenty-three dollars for each permit | 468 |
unless the rules adopted under division (B) of section 1533.12 of | 469 |
the Revised Code provide for issuance of a deer or wild turkey | 470 |
permit to the applicant free of charge. Except as provided in | 471 |
rules adopted under division (B)(2) of that section, each | 472 |
applicant who is a resident of this state and who at the time of | 473 |
application is sixty-six years of age or older shall procure a | 474 |
senior deer or wild turkey permit, the fee for which shall be | 475 |
one-half of the regular deer or wild turkey permit fee. Each | 476 |
applicant who is under the age of eighteen years shall procure a | 477 |
youth deer or wild turkey permit, the fee for which shall be | 478 |
one-half of the regular deer or wild turkey permit fee. Except as | 479 |
provided in division (A)(2) of section 1533.12 of the Revised | 480 |
Code, a deer or wild turkey permit shall run concurrently with the | 481 |
hunting license. The money received shall be paid into the state | 482 |
treasury to the credit of the wildlife fund, created in section | 483 |
1531.17 of the Revised Code, exclusively for the use of the | 484 |
division of wildlife in the acquisition and development of land | 485 |
for deer or wild turkey management, for investigating deer or wild | 486 |
turkey problems, and for the stocking, management, and protection | 487 |
of deer or wild turkey. Every person, while hunting deer or wild | 488 |
turkey on lands of another, shall carry the person's deer or wild | 489 |
turkey permit and exhibit it to any enforcement officer so | 490 |
requesting. Failure to so carry and exhibit such a permit | 491 |
constitutes an offense under this section. The chief of the | 492 |
division of wildlife shall adopt any additional rules the chief | 493 |
considers necessary to carry out this section and section 1533.10 | 494 |
of the Revised Code. | 495 |
An owner who is a resident of this state or an owner who is | 496 |
exempt from obtaining a hunting license under section 1533.10 of | 497 |
the Revised Code and the children of the owner of lands in this | 498 |
state may hunt deer or wild turkey thereon without a deer or wild | 499 |
turkey permit. If the owner of land in this state is a limited | 500 |
liability company or a limited liability partnership that consists | 501 |
of three or fewer individual members or partners, as applicable, | 502 |
an individual member or partner who is a resident of this state | 503 |
and the member's or partner's children of any age may hunt deer or | 504 |
wild turkey on the land owned by the limited liability company or | 505 |
limited liability partnership without a deer or wild turkey | 506 |
permit. In addition, if the owner of land in this state is a trust | 507 |
that has a total of three or fewer trustees and beneficiaries, an | 508 |
individual who is a trustee or beneficiary and who is a resident | 509 |
of this state and the individual's children of any age may hunt | 510 |
deer or wild turkey on the land owned by the trust without a deer | 511 |
or wild turkey permit. The tenant and children of the tenant may | 512 |
hunt deer or wild turkey on lands where they reside without a deer | 513 |
or wild turkey permit. | 514 |
Sec. 1533.111. Except as provided in this section or | 528 |
division (A)(2) of section 1533.12 of the Revised Code, no person | 529 |
shall hunt or trap fur-bearing animals on land of another without | 530 |
first obtaining some type of an annual fur taker permit. Each | 531 |
applicant for a fur taker permit or an apprentice fur taker permit | 532 |
shall pay an annual fee of fourteen dollars for the permit, except | 533 |
as otherwise provided in this section or unless the rules adopted | 534 |
under division (B) of section 1533.12 of the Revised Code provide | 535 |
for issuance of a fur taker permit to the applicant free of | 536 |
charge. Except as provided in rules adopted under division (B)(2) | 537 |
of that section, each applicant who is a resident of this state | 538 |
and who at the time of application is sixty-six years of age or | 539 |
older shall procure a special senior fur taker permit, the fee for | 540 |
which shall be one-half of the regular fur taker permit fee. Each | 541 |
applicant under the age of eighteen years shall procure a special | 542 |
youth fur taker permit or an apprentice youth fur taker permit, | 543 |
the fee for which shall be one-half of the regular fur taker | 544 |
permit fee. Each type of fur taker permit shall run concurrently | 545 |
with the hunting license. The money received shall be paid into | 546 |
the state treasury to the credit of the fund established in | 547 |
section 1533.15 of the Revised Code. Apprentice fur taker permits | 548 |
and apprentice youth fur taker permits are subject to the | 549 |
requirements established under section 1533.102 of the Revised | 550 |
Code and rules adopted pursuant to it. | 551 |
No fur taker permit, other than an apprentice fur taker | 557 |
permit or an apprentice youth fur taker permit, shall be issued | 558 |
unless the applicant presents to the agent authorized to issue a | 559 |
fur taker permit a previously held hunting license or trapping or | 560 |
fur taker permit or evidence of having held such a license or | 561 |
permit in content and manner approved by the chief of the division | 562 |
of wildlife, a certificate of completion issued upon completion of | 563 |
a trapper education course approved by the chief, or evidence of | 564 |
equivalent training in content and manner approved by the chief. A | 565 |
previously held apprentice hunting license, apprentice fur taker | 566 |
permit, or apprentice youth fur taker permit does not satisfy the | 567 |
requirement concerning the presentation of a previously held | 568 |
hunting license or fur taker permit or evidence of such a license | 569 |
or permit. | 570 |
No person shall issue a fur taker permit, other than an | 571 |
apprentice fur taker permit or an apprentice youth fur taker | 572 |
permit, to any person who fails to present the evidence required | 573 |
by this section. No person shall purchase or obtain a fur taker | 574 |
permit, other than an apprentice fur taker permit or an apprentice | 575 |
youth fur taker permit, without presenting to the issuing agent | 576 |
the evidence required by this section. Issuance of a fur taker | 577 |
permit in violation of the requirements of this section is an | 578 |
offense by both the purchaser of the illegally obtained permit and | 579 |
the clerk or agent who issued the permit. Any fur taker permit | 580 |
issued in violation of this section is void. | 581 |
The chief, with approval of the wildlife council, shall adopt | 582 |
rules prescribing a trapper education course for first-time fur | 583 |
taker permit buyers, other than buyers of apprentice fur taker | 584 |
permits or apprentice youth fur taker permits, and for volunteer | 585 |
instructors. The course shall consist of subjects that include, | 586 |
but are not limited to, trapping techniques, animal habits and | 587 |
identification, trapping tradition and ethics, the trapper and | 588 |
conservation, the law in section 1533.17 of the Revised Code along | 589 |
with the penalty for its violation, including a description of | 590 |
terms of imprisonment and fines that may be imposed, and other law | 591 |
relating to trapping. Authorized personnel of the division of | 592 |
wildlife or volunteer instructors approved by the chief shall | 593 |
conduct the courses with such frequency and at such locations | 594 |
throughout the state as to reasonably meet the needs of permit | 595 |
applicants. The chief shall issue a certificate of completion to | 596 |
each person who successfully completes the course and passes an | 597 |
examination prescribed by the chief. | 598 |
An owner who is a resident of this state or an owner who is | 605 |
exempt from obtaining a hunting license under section 1533.10 of | 606 |
the Revised Code and the children of the owner of lands in this | 607 |
state may hunt or trap fur-bearing animals thereon without a fur | 608 |
taker permit. If the owner of land in this state is a limited | 609 |
liability company or a limited liability partnership that consists | 610 |
of three or fewer individual members or partners, as applicable, | 611 |
an individual member or partner who is a resident of this state | 612 |
and the member's or partner's children of any age may hunt or trap | 613 |
fur-bearing animals on the land owned by the limited liability | 614 |
company or limited liability partnership without a fur taker | 615 |
permit. In addition, if the owner of land in this state is a trust | 616 |
that has a total of three or fewer trustees and beneficiaries, an | 617 |
individual who is a trustee or beneficiary and who is a resident | 618 |
of this state and the individual's children of any age may hunt or | 619 |
trap fur-bearing animals on the land owned by the trust without a | 620 |
fur taker permit. The tenant and children of the tenant may hunt | 621 |
or trap fur-bearing animals on lands where they reside without a | 622 |
fur taker permit. | 623 |
Sec. 1533.32. Except as provided in this section or division | 629 |
(A)(2) or (C) of section 1533.12 of the Revised Code, no person, | 630 |
including nonresidents, shall take or catch any fish by angling in | 631 |
any of the waters in the state or engage in fishing in those | 632 |
waters without a license. No person shall take or catch frogs or | 633 |
turtles without a valid fishing license, except as provided in | 634 |
this section. Persons fishing in privately owned ponds, lakes, or | 635 |
reservoirs to or from which fish are not accustomed to migrate are | 636 |
exempt from the license requirements set forth in this section. | 637 |
Persons fishing in privately owned ponds, lakes, or reservoirs | 638 |
that are open to public fishing through an agreement or lease with | 639 |
the division of wildlife shall comply with the license | 640 |
requirements set forth in this section. | 641 |
The fee for an annual license shall be thirty-nine dollars | 642 |
for a resident of a state that is not a party to an agreement | 643 |
under section 1533.91 of the Revised Code. The fee for an annual | 644 |
license shall be eighteen dollars for a resident of a state that | 645 |
is a party to such an agreement. The fee for an annual license for | 646 |
residents of this state shall be eighteen dollars unless the rules | 647 |
adopted under division (B) of section 1533.12 of the Revised Code | 648 |
provide for issuance of a resident fishing license to the | 649 |
applicant free of charge. Except as provided in rules adopted | 650 |
under division (B)(2) of that section, each applicant who is a | 651 |
resident of this state and who at the time of application is | 652 |
sixty-six years of age or older shall procure a special senior | 653 |
fishing license, the fee for which shall be one-half of the annual | 654 |
resident fishing license fee. | 655 |
The chief shall adopt rules under section 1531.10 of the | 664 |
Revised Code providing for the issuance of a one-day fishing | 665 |
license to a resident of this state or of any other state. The fee | 666 |
for such a license shall be fifty-five per cent of the amount | 667 |
established under this section for a tourist's license, rounded up | 668 |
to the nearest whole dollar. A one-day fishing license shall allow | 669 |
the holder to take or catch fish by angling in the waters in the | 670 |
state, engage in fishing in those waters, or take or catch frogs | 671 |
or turtles in those waters for one day without obtaining an annual | 672 |
license or a tourist's license under this section. At the request | 673 |
of a holder of a one-day fishing license who wishes to obtain an | 674 |
annual license, a clerk or agent authorized to issue licenses | 675 |
under section 1533.13 of the Revised Code, not later than the last | 676 |
day on which the one-day license would be valid if it were an | 677 |
annual license, shall credit the amount of the fee paid for the | 678 |
one-day license toward the fee charged for the annual license if | 679 |
so authorized by the chief. The clerk or agent shall issue the | 680 |
annual license upon presentation of the one-day license and | 681 |
payment of a fee in an amount equal to the difference between the | 682 |
fee for the annual license and the fee for the one-day license. | 683 |
A resident of this state who owns land over, through, upon, | 692 |
or along which any water flows or stands, except where the land is | 693 |
in or borders on state parks or state-owned lakes, together with | 694 |
the members of the immediate families of such owners, may take | 695 |
frogs and turtles and may take or catch fish of the kind permitted | 696 |
to be taken or caught therefrom without procuring a license | 697 |
provided for in this section. This exemption extends to tenants | 698 |
actually residing upon such lands and to the members of the | 699 |
immediate families of the tenants. A resident of any other state | 700 |
who owns land in this state over, through, upon, or along which | 701 |
any water flows or stands, except where the land is in or borders | 702 |
on state parks or state-owned lakes, and the spouse and children | 703 |
living with the owner, may take frogs and turtles and may take or | 704 |
catch fish of the kind permitted to be taken or caught from that | 705 |
water without obtaining a license under this section, provided | 706 |
