special permissions
CHILDREN:
Any child under the age of 18 years must, by New York State law, have a permit to work in a film or television production. The New York State Department of Labor administers Child Performer Permits. Located at 345 Hudson Street, New York, NY, 10014, this office can be reached by phone at 212-775-3880. Further information is also available on the Department of Labor’s web site at www.labor.state.ny.us.

PYROTECHNICS:
Pyrotechnics, fire effects and explosions, including simulated and other smoke effects, require a prior inspection, permit and supervision by the NYC Fire Department.

SPECIAL REQUESTS:
Exceptional requests (i.e. removing a lamppost, changing a street sign, etc.) may require additional permits. The Mayor’s Office of Film, Theatre & Broadcasting will provide the municipal contacts to expedite this.

OTHER PERMISSIONS:
Locations that require prior approval from other city agencies, private organizations or conservancies (Examples: MTA, Parks Department, Tishman Speyer, Hudson River Conservancy) must have that information (contact name, organization name and phone number) typed on the Schedule "A."
