I would first like to mention that it was a pleasure meeting you at the USEPA office on Friday,
Director Emeriti May 31. As you may recall, although the meeting was called for the individual apartment clean-

up program under development by the EPA, I was concerned that the interior of the buildings
were being cleaned while the exterior facades were not. We at Southbridge (SBT) were notified
by your office that only one out often buildings was scheduled for facade cleaning. To add
insult to injury, that building is the only non-residential building we have which is occupied by
Foot Locker and Burger King.' I did ask if SBT would be able to obtain the test results
preformed by the Board of Health on our buildings that led to the determination of only the one
commercial building qualifying. I would much appreciate if you would provide me with the
copies of the test results or a contdct that may be able to provide the information.
Also, the license agreement includes a reimbursement provision if compensation is received by
the building. In light of the fact that SBT is currently in dispute with our insurer with respect
to the facade cleaning, and that no deadline for acceptance of the license agreement was
established, I respectfully request time to have our counsel review the agreement and to be able
to make a decision only after our insurance claim is resolved.
In the meantime, I am attaching a copy of a letter sent to Mr. Rradhallrishnan, PE on behalf of
SBT for your reference. As you will see, our concern is that all our residential buildings were
subjected to the same amount of dust as the one commercial buidling.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Your courtesy and attention is much appreciated.
Sincerely ~
