DOB Rescinds COVID
Enforcement Measures

As of July 8, 2021, Buildings has rescinded the guidance
allowing enforcement of health and safety rules to help stop
the spread of COVID.

The Department has rescinded previously issued
Guidance and Buildings Bulletins related to the COVID-19
public health emergency for construction. Due to changes in
New York State guidelines, property owners and contractors
no longer have to observe the following:

DOB Phase 1: Reopening Guidance, previously
issued more than a year ago.

BB 2020-010: How to reopen construction sites
that were shut down due to the pandemic.

BB 2020-006: How to secure construction sites
that were shut down due to the pandemic.

BB 2020-015: The temporary use of hotels by
educational institutions as dormitories.

BB 2021-008: Determining a headcount of persons
for in-door dining or other food services

Now that New York is reopening, you will find these
bulletins on the DOB website with a "RESCINDED" stamp on the
document. It means that they no longer apply to any
projects, moving forward.

view current bulletins, you may visit
