How an HPD heat and hot water violation gets issued

Most of these violations start with a tenant's call to 311. HPD schedules an inspection, and if the inspector confirms the condition, HPD issues a violation and mails the owner a Notice of Violation. From then on anyone can look it up on HPD Online by address, and it stays open until HPD accepts a correction or closes the case another way. See how HPD, DOB, and OATH/ECB fit together.

How often Staten Island heat and hot water violations get certified corrected

Two numbers sum up Staten Island on Class C heat and hot water. One is 775, the violations certified corrected out of 2,319, 33.4%, filed at a median of 10 days and a 90th percentile of 18. The other is 327, the violations past a year with no certification at all.

0.6% of Staten Island’s heat and hot water violations are now marked Not Complied With, the status HPD sets once the certify-by date passes with no accepted certification.

A Class C heat or hot water violation has a 24-hour correction window under the city's code, and the notice sets a later date to certify the repair. The heat violation guide shows how long certification actually takes against that date, and where cases stop.

What happens after an HPD certification is filed

Two things decide the next status: the certify-by date and HPD’s review. Filed inside the date, a certification shows NOV Certified On Time; filed outside it, NOV Certified Late, and the missed window stays visible. Paperwork HPD finds insufficient becomes Defect Letter Issued, to be filed again. A certification an inspector contradicts becomes Invalid Certification. Every one of those has a page in the glossary.
