Dore LaPosta suggested that I forward this message to you and that I give Richard Leland, Esq, of Kramer Levin your phone number. He wants to raise IPN's issues, noted in paragraphs 3 and 4 below, with a manager at DEP to see if you can modify City’s agreement with the contractors. Kathy Callahan was not able to reach you by phone yesterday to discuss the issues raised by IPN's counsel. I believe that FranK Schiano discussed this with you.

Tom Lieber and I met with the following representatives of Independence North: Ezra Goodman, counsel for real estate and contracts issues, Richard Leland, counsel for environmental issues and his associate Toni Ferrucci, and Debbie Dolan, Manager from Hudson River Management IPN's management company to discuss the issues that they believe remain to be resolved.
We were informed that a contract for sale for the IPN property has been signed by Duane Street Associates, the owner with an unnamed buyer. For that reason, among others, counsel want to insure that no liens or violations are placed on the buildings as a result of the work that will performed by the cleaning and monitoring contractors.
At the conclusion of the meeting counsel said that they would like to bring their contract concerns to someone at a high level at NYCDEP to 1
