🚨 Attention Building Owners and Property Managers in DC! 🚨 Have you received a Notice of Violation (NOV) from the Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE) for missing your energy benchmarking verification (3PV) submission? DOEE began issuing these NOVs at the end of September, and the stakes are high! Failure to comply within 30 calendar days of the NOV may result in fines of up to $100 per day, retroactive to July 1, 2024. That means if your 3PV isn’t submitted soon, you could face fines of up to $10,000 or more! At Baumann, we specialize in third-party energy benchmarking verification and have successfully helped over 100 building owners stay compliant and avoid these costly penalties. If you've received an NOV, acting quickly to minimize potential fines is important. Don’t delay! Start your 3PV process today to ensure your property stays compliant with DC’s requirements. Contact us: EBD@baumann-us.com or fill out a benchmarking request form: https://buff.ly/4eHi9Nj #EnergyEfficiency #EnergyBenchmarking #BEPS #DCBEPS
