(d) Qualifications. Personnel or contracted non-personnel leading the activity have appropriate certifications, when required, training in the activity, or experience. Documentation is maintained per OAC 340:110-3-281.3(b).

(e) Higher risk activity plan and parent permission. Prior to the activity, the program provides the plan to parents and obtains their permission. Documentation is maintained per OAC 340:110-3-281.4(b).
