Ohio Rev. Code § 4913.19: Request for administrative hearing.

In lieu of making a recommendation of a fine or penalty or a no-enforcement determination, the underground technical committee may request an administrative hearing with the public utilities commission if the committee believes that any person responsible for a compliance failure should be subject to a fine or penalty exceeding those described in section 4913.151 of the Revised Code. As a result of the hearing, the commission shall impose a fine or penalty or take no enforcement action.
