Statewide enforcement of the Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC) will become mandatory in certain areas on July 1, 2012.
These areas include all municipalities in Maine that have more than 4,000 residents.
The MUBEC was initially adopted in 2007. It consists of four international codes established by the International Code Council (ICC) and other American standards.
Additionally, the MUBEC is intended to resolve the unique differences in building code ordinances that exist in various cities and towns and to hold design professionals to the same standards across the state.
