New York City’s Local Law 97 (LL97) requires owners of Covered Buildings (single buildings in excess of 25,000 gross square feet or multiple buildings on the same tax block or governed by the same entity exceeding 50,000 gross square feet) to report compliance with respect to greenhouse gas emission limits.
While the annual reporting date is May 1 of each year, NYCDOB has granted an extension for reports this year to June 30. As a Professional Engineering firm, Walden can serve as an authorized agent and complete compliance reporting activities on behalf of building owners.
In order to comply with LL97 requirements, the following actions must be completed by June 30, 2025:
- Register facility through New York City DOB NOW interface
- Create/review facility profile through Energy Star Portfolio Manager
- Register facility through Building Analysis Energy Manager (BEAM)
- Upload supporting documents through BEAM, and provide attestation to assessment
