Drinking Water Tank Inspection Results

The New York City Health Code requires building owners to inspect their water storage tanks once a year and report the results to the Health Department.

Building owners must hire a water tank inspector to conduct the inspection. The water tank inspector must certify and submit the inspection findings online, including the tank's condition and water quality test results. Information provided by the water tank inspector is not independently validated by the Health Department.

Failure to conduct a drinking water tank inspection or file a report annually is a violation of the law.

Below you can search a building’s self-reported inspection findings by entering either the Department of Building’s Building Identification Number (BIN) or the building’s street address. You can find a BIN for a specific building online.
