You may need to submit an LL87 report if you:
Send us your property’s BBL by clicking the button below (or just the address if you don’t have the BBL handy) and we can tell you whether or not you need to comply.
There are three steps involved:
FYI: The report may include lots of ideal recommendations, like replacing heating systems and installing solar panels. But don’t worry, you don’t need to follow every last one right now! If your budget is limited (and whose is not?), be sure to work with a compliance consultant who will tell you what’s needed and what can wait.
(Some buildings with cooling towers and chillers may need to be assessed during cooling/heating seasons which can add 6 months to the audit process.)
Big Apple takes a big bite
Buildings that don’t submit a report in time are subject to a $3000 fine. This fine gets kicked up to $5000 for each subsequent year you don’t send in a report.
But there’s a silver lining!
The audit will help find ways your systems and equipment are underperforming, and fixing these issues will increase your energy efficiency and lower your operating costs.
Also, when you take steps to reduce your energy costs, it will be much easier for you to comply with NYC’s Local Law 97, the city’s ambitious plan to lower carbon emissions.
Want to be 100% compliant – but on your terms?
You’re not keen on following orders like a poodle, right? You want to understand exactly what you need to do, make your own decisions, and then get it done easily. We respect that.
