The notice shall include: (1) a statement of time, place, and nature of the hearing; (2) a statement of the legal authority and jurisdiction under which the hearing is to be held; (3) a reference to the particular section of the statutes and rules involved; and (4) a short and plain statement of the matters asserted. The petitioner may satisfy this requirement by incorporating the petition by reference in the notice of hearing.
