owner who wishes to request a waiver of the useful life requirement set forth
in clause (d) of this subparagraph must apply to the DHCR for such waiver prior
to the commencement of the work for which he or she will be seeking a temporary
major capital improvement rental increase. Notwithstanding this requirement,
where the waiver requested is for an item being replaced because of an
emergency, which causes the building or any part thereof to be dangerous to

improvement rent increase application.

(2) If the waiver is denied, the owner will
not be eligible for a temporary major capital improvement increase. However, if
the waiver is granted, the useful life requirement will not be a factor in the
