Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
 
      Section 1.  Section 28-405.3.1 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as added by local law number 33 for the year 2007, is amended to read as follows:
      §28-405.3.1  Class A license.  All applicants for a class A basic hoisting machine operator license shall have had at least three years experience within the five years prior to application under the direct and continuing supervision of a licensed hoisting machine operator and shall successfully complete written and practical examinations administered by a city agency.  Such examination shall specifically address the unique challenges of safely operating such equipment within the city's environment and the applicability of any federal or local laws and rules or industry standard recognized and enforced by the city.
      §2.  Section 28-405.3.2 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as added by local law number 33 for the year 2007, is amended to read as follows:
§28-405.3.2  Class B license.  All applicants for a class B hoisting machine operator license shall hold a class A basic hoisting machine operator license, and shall have had at least two years experience prior to application under the direct and continuing supervision of a Class B licensed hoisting machine operator operating the equipment for which they are applying for endorsement and shall satisfactorily demonstrate by operation that they are competent to operate a crane with a boom, including jibs and other extensions, exceeding 200 feet (60 960 mm) in length or truck-mounted tower crane exceeding 200 feet (60 960 mm) in height [or as otherwise provided in rules of the department].  All applicants for such license shall also successfully complete written and practical examinations administered by a city agency.  Such examination shall specifically address the unique challenges of safely operating such equipment within the city's environment and the applicability of any federal or local laws and rules or industry standard recognized and enforced by the city.      
§3. This local law shall take effect sixty days after enactment, provided, however, that the commissioner of buildings shall take all actions necessary to implement this local law, including the promulgation of rules and the establishment of the required examinations, on or before such date.
