THE THE INCREASED REGULATORY RIGOR carries a HEFTY PRICE TAG for building owners and operators.
LOCAL Law of 77 and newly added Chapter 8 REQUIRES owners of buildings with cooling towers that are in use to conduct routine inspections by a qualified person prior to seasonal startup and every 90 days. Legionella testing is a requirement with these inspections.
• Building owners are REQUIRED to respond appropriately to any elevated Legionella culture sampling results. notify the local health department within 24 hours of getting a Legionella culture sample result exceeding 1,000 colony-forming units (CFU) per milliliter (mL).
By law, all cooling towers must be disinfected twice per year. Use only pesticide applicators or technicians certified by the state Department of Environmental Conservation to apply biocides for disinfection.
Regulations mandate that all buildings with cooling towers to invest in a cooling tower maintenance program and plan and to keep this plan updated.
• By Nov. 1 of each year a certification must be obtained from the credentialed inspector that states that each cooling tower is covered by a maintenance plan, that it has been followed, and that all requirements of the regulations have been met.
• Owners of buildings with cooling towers must keep the status of their towers updated in a new statewide electronic system.
VIOLATIONS of these regulations are subject to civil penalties up to $10,000. Failure to
disinfect towers with increased microbes are classified as misdemeanors, punishable up to $25,000!
