the Now York Stria Department of Libor (NY'SDQL) has peafotmcd a

n.ø* Gseuii-• MKttJr inGhidirng building roofs, facades, setbacks, and other eaxteruw sui1ccs Th i tese

visible:. Our records indicate that visible debris accw,wlations were obacrvcd
at the
F* t above referenced building (the "Building").
In our previous Correspondence, the Department requested an
assessment
and appropriate clean up of visible debris accumulations. The Department has
either not received information regarding
YOW actions to adthas the debris
accumulations or has rc-mnspccted your building and found that visible debris was
pest.
The USEPA and DEP are continuing their ongoing efforts to knpnwc air
quality in lower Maraltattann. In this regard. DEP is Initiating a
program (the
"Cleaning g ") to clean the extcnors of certain buildings in the downtown
Manhattan area.
Based on visual surveys and snalyw.es Of other properties
s in the arcs, we are
assuming that the debris accumulations noted on the exterior of the Building may
include some amount of asbedaa-eo tainirng matstial (ACM). DEP would
like to
include the Building in the Cleaning Per, and clean the futcadeas, roofs, and
other exterior surfccs s0 as to ranove such accumulations. The
work would be
wed by NYSDOL lieased sabcatos contractors with DEP round NYSDOL.
