a user in your domain or another trusted domain the ability to administer all or a portion of the objects within an OU.

group policy or run the modeling wizard it will fail with “Access is Denied.” This is because while she has Full Control at the OU level, her account needs to be added to the Group Policy Objects container in the GPMC interface. Once you have added the account there, your admin will now be able to create/edit/delete gpo’s. How to Give OU Administrators the Ability to Create GPOs
