Int 1397-2025
| * | James F. Gennaro | | Proposed Int. No. 1397-A | Establishing resilient construction standards for tanks in stormwater flood risk areas | Introduction | This bill would require the Office of Long-Term Planning and Sustainability, in consultation with the Department of Environmental Protection, and the Department of Buildings (DOB) to conduct a study to develop construction code amendments to address stormwater flood risks. This bill would also require DOB to indicate on its building information system online portal whether a property is within the 10-year rainfall flood risk area, and a link to information about the risks of stormwater flooding to properties. Finally, this bill would amend Appendix G of the Building Code to require that above-ground tanks in the 10-year rainfall flood risk area be elevated to account for the risks of stormwater flooding. | | |
