A 2649 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to indoor air quality in schools

This bill requires New York State to establish a program for inspecting indoor air quality in schools and pre-kindergarten facilities. It directly affects all public, charter, private, and parochial K-12 schools and pre-K programs (defined as "covered entities"). Key provisions mandate health department inspections for issues like mold, lead, or poor ventilation; require written complaint investigations; and demand reports comparing air quality to EPA guidelines. The program also requires distributing best practice guides for schools to address hazards like asbestos, radon, and high carbon dioxide levels.
