(2) If an emergency necessitates the immediate adoption of a  rule, or the immediate adoption of an amendment or rescission of a  rule that is required by or otherwise necessary to implement  sections 5117.01 to 5117.12 of the Revised Code, the director  immediately may adopt the emergency rule, amendment, or rescission  without complying with division (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), or (F) of  section 119.03 of the Revised Code so long as the director states  the reasons for the necessity in the emergency rule, amendment, or  rescission.

If all  filings are not completed on the same day, the emergency rule,  amendment, or rescission is effective on the day on which the  latest filing is completed. An emergency rule, amendment, or  rescission adopted under this division is not subject to section  111.15 or division (G) of section 119.03 of the Revised Code. An  emergency rule, amendment, or rescission adopted under this  division continues in effect until amended or rescinded by the  director in accordance with division (C)(1) or (2) of this  section, except that the rescission of an emergency rescission  does not revive the rule rescinded.
(D) Except where otherwise provided, each form, application,  notice, and the like used in fulfilling the requirements of  sections 5117.01 to 5117.12 of the Revised Code shall be approved  by the director.
