LOCAL LAW 152 Deadline EXTENDED

The Department of Buildings has made the decision to extend the deadline for Local Law 152 (LL152). This now extends the December 31, 2020 inspection deadline for buildings in Community Districts 1, 3 and 10 in all boroughs to June 30, 2021.

As a reminder, LL152 requires periodic inspections of all exposed gas piping from point of entry into the building (excluding R-3 homes). The law does not apply to gas piping within apartments, but is applicable in public areas, hallways, corridors and mechanical and boiler rooms.

For buildings that fall within this filing window initially would have required inspections between September 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020 and have conditions identified for correction, the certification of correction may now be submitted up to 120 days (or if more time is needed no later than 180 days) following the inspection date, as applicable, but no later than June 30, 2021.
