Which notification method is acceptable when informing the building owner and the local AHJ after a yellow tag is removed?

• A. Phone call or in-person delivery
• B. Email only
• C. In-person only
• D. Postmarked, emailed, faxed or hand delivered

Answer: (D)

Notification after removing a yellow tag must be documented in writing so there is a verifiable record for both the building owner and the local AHJ. The acceptable methods—postmarked mail, email, fax with a transmission receipt, or hand delivery with a signed acknowledgment—all produce traceable proof of when the notice was sent and received. This written record is essential for compliance and accountability. Relying on a phone call or in-person delivery alone doesn’t leave a durable, verifiable trail. Email is acceptable as part of the written options, but using it alone without a written receipt or confirmation can be insufficient for proving delivery to all required parties. In-person delivery by itself likewise lacks the formal record unless there’s a signed receipt. Handing over a notice with a signed acknowledgment, or sending it via postmarked mail, fax with a transmission report, or a time-stamped email, ensures there's a reliable document showing that the notification occurred and when.
