What this violation means

The source record concerns work performed or conditions maintained while a Stop Work Order was in effect, or another violation tied directly to a Stop Work Order. Continuing regulated work under an active order can create separate enforcement exposure.

What may be required to correct the condition

Verify the Stop Work Order's scope and whether it remains active. The underlying reasons for the order may require correction, permits, amended plans, site-safety measures or inspections before DOB will consider rescission or limited work authorization.

What the OATH hearing may involve

Relevant hearing evidence can include the Stop Work Order itself, photographs of the work activity, permits and approvals in effect at the time, DOB inspection history, and any document showing the order had been lifted or modified.

Possible defenses or factual issues worth investigating

Review the exact order number, date, scope, affected work areas, authorized exceptions if any, and whether the activity described by the inspector actually occurred while the order was active. Cross-reference the other order/summons number cited in the inspector narrative rather than reviewing this record in isolation.

Documents and evidence that may be useful

  • Stop Work Order and related DOB inspection records
  • permits and approved plans
  • site photographs and daily logs
  • rescind/partial-rescind correspondence or approvals
  • contractor and site-safety records
