If you own or manage a building in New York City, following Local Law 152 (LL152) is critical. This regulation requires periodic inspections of gas piping to ensure buildings remain safe. Failing to conduct an inspection or file the correct paperwork can result in expensive fines and violations.
Why Do Fines Happen Under LL152?
Violations and fines can happen for several reasons, including:
- Missing your scheduled inspection window
- Failing to submit the required documentation on time
- Submitting incomplete or inaccurate reports
- Failing to fix unsafe gas piping issues
The most common fine is $5,000 per missed inspection. These fines can quickly add up if a building is flagged for multiple violations.

Local Law 152 Compliance Checklist
Use this step-by-step list to stay on track and avoid LL152 penalties:
- Know Your Deadline
Inspection schedules are based on your community district. Look up your deadline through the NYC Department of Buildings and mark it well in advance. - Book a Licensed Master Plumber
Only licensed plumbers are authorized to perform LL152 inspections. Book early, as schedules often fill up close to deadlines. - Get the Property Ready
Ensure that all gas piping is easily accessible. Address any known issues ahead of time to avoid delays or complications. - Review and Collect Your GPS1 Report
Within 30 days of the inspection, the plumber must provide you with the Gas Piping System Periodic Inspection Report (GPS1). - Submit the GPS2 to NYC DOB
Within 60 days of the inspection, submit the Certification of Inspection (GPS2) to the Department of Buildings. Late submissions may result in fines. - Complete Any Required Repairs
If the inspection reveals problems, repairs must be completed quickly. Depending on the severity, you may need a follow-up inspection. - Keep Records On File
Hold on to all inspection and certification records for at least 10 years. You may need them for audits or future inspections.
Avoid Fines, Protect Your Building
Compliance with LL152 is not just about avoiding penalties. It is a matter of safety for your tenants and your property. A clear plan and timely action can save you thousands in fines and prevent unnecessary risk.
