eFiling Expands to Minor Plumbing Projects |
||||||||||||
|
We've expanded eFiling to minor plumbing projects and oil burner installations. Licensed master plumbers, fire suppression contractors and oil burner installers can now use eFiling for limited standpipe, sprinkler, plumbing and oil burner work. Filing Limited Alteration Applications electronically will save the construction industry an estimated $2.4 million each year. This service enhancement also significantly streamlines DOB's operations and approval process for more than 12,000 applications annually.

DOB Tip Leads to Arrest of Construction Super
|
After investigating a DOB inspector's tip, DOI arrested a construction super-intendent for offering a bribe. "Any industry member who tries to circumvent our laws is betraying the public trust, and our inspector should be commended for bringing this person to justice," said Buildings Commissioner LiMandri. |
