NYS DOL ESU no long utilizes the FTV process. We however, suggest using these documents of reference while applying of Site Specific Variances as they are readily accepted practices. The information below (in italics) is historical in nature. It was written when Fast Track Variance process was utilized. The Engineering Services Unit (ESU) is launching a pilot program for certain site-specific variances (SSVs). These new variances will be called "Fast-Track Variances" (FTVs). These are common variances that are issued on a regular basis. At the start of the program, there will be 11 of the variances available, each with an assigned number (see list below). Over time, more FTVs might be added. The established process for variance application can result in approval turnaround times of two to three weeks depending on the current workload at the ESU. Variance applications are typically processed in the order received. With the FTV process, routine variances could potentially be issued the same day as they are received by the ESU. The goal is to speed up the review process for these routine variances. To make this process work, several guidelines must be followed. These are guidelines for getting an FTV: • A completed SH 752 form m(undefined)ust be submitted. The form must include all the necessary information for obtaining a variance, including the hardship. No information about the work plan should be included with the application. • The SH 752 form (undefined)must be submitted by a certified Project Designer working on behalf of the Petitioner. • The variance fee of $350 must be included. • In Section 9 of the SH 752 form, the Petitioner's Agent must write in the number of the FTV that is requested. • The FTV will be issued as it is written. If some part of the FTV doesn't meet the project's needs, then a standard SSV is required. • Other relief cannot be added to the FTV. • No re-openings or amendments are allowed. • Termination date extension requests will be handled on a case-by-case basis. • These FTVs have no bearing on notification times. Below is a list of FTVs that will be available initially. Available Fast-Track Variances By selecting the relevant FTV links above, PDF samples of the conditions in each FTV are provided to show the type of relief which is granted. Project Designers should verify that the relief granted by the FTV meets the project's need.

NYS Asbestos Survey Requirements (P232). PACNY prompted publication from NYS DOL clarifying survey requirements by dismissing the confusion of construction date. Guidance to Municipalities (P230) This notice explains that while municipalities are not required to enforce asbestos regulations, DOL is encouraging them to: • Request asbestos surveys before issuing permits • Contact DOL when surveys are not provided Guidance to Building Permit Applicants (P231) This document explains directly to contractors, trades, and property owners that: • An asbestos survey is required prior to renovation or demolition • Only licensed asbestos contractors may disturb ACM • Unsafe or condemned buildings must be assumed to contain asbestos • Homeowner exemptions are very limited EAST Detailed checklist What must be in your NYS Asbestos Survey
