New York, NY – Department of Buildings Commissioner Eric Ulrich announced today the publication of proposed rules implementing Local Law 97 of 2019 – groundbreaking legislation that limits carbon emissions from the City’s largest buildings starting in 2024. These limits are the centerpiece of the City’s plan to reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions from the five boroughs and meet aggressive reduction targets in citywide emissions by calendar year 2050. The publication of these rules is another critical step towards the robust implementation of this law ahead of the first compliance deadline scheduled for 2025. Follow the link to learn more.
