§ 202-f. Protection of hotel and motel employees against fire hazards
in employee housing facilities. Notwithstanding any other provision of
law, the board of standards and appeals shall issue a temporary rule
governing fire hazards in housing facilities for hotel and motel
employees, to become effective on the first day of June, nineteen
hundred seventy-three. Such temporary rule shall contain such national
consensus standards or standards of any governmental agency in the state
relating to housing facilities as the board deems necessary for the
protection of the lives, health and safety of hotel and motel employees.
Notice of the adoption of such temporary rule shall be published in ten
newspapers throughout the state and such temporary rule shall be filed
with the secretary of state. Such temporary rule shall remain in effect
until superseded by a safety and health standard promulgated in
accordance with the procedure prescribed in article twelve of this
chapter or until the first day of June, nineteen hundred seventy-four,
whichever occurs first, provided however, that nothing in this section
shall prevent any other agency of the state or subdivision thereof from
enforcing a public health and safety standard promulgated pursuant to
section two hundred twenty-five of the public health law.
