Dear Sir/Madam:
In September 2001, the New York City Department of Environmental
Protection (NYCDEP) and the Department of Health (NYCDOH) advised
building owners regarding building maintenance and re-occupancy issues
following the collapse of the World Trade Center. The steps included the
assessment of building contamination for possible ;hazardous components,
including s
a'.bestos.
A visual survey of your building's exterior was conducted on February 16,
2002 as a follow up to DEP's October survey of buildings around the World
Trade Center site. At the above referenced site, visible dust accumulations
were observed at:
® building facade(s)
setback(s)
roof
other,
Please be advised building owners are responsible for the cleaning of
building exteriors, grounds and common areas. Due to changing conditions
and continued activity at Ground Zero, building owners should periodically
assess the condition of building exteriors and air conditioning systems for
cleanliness and may have to periodically re-clean areas. Adherence to
proper cleaning methods is important for the protection of public health and
the environment. DEP inspectors will be following up on this matter.
Please provide information regarding your actions to address the dust
accumulations by February 27, 2002. Copies of the environmental hazard
assessments including bulk sample results, air monitoring results and/or a
summary ul'clean-up activities at the above-referenced site may be faxed to
