Ask DDC to comment on this one.

they were affected?
No. It is not necessary to dispose of items which can be
effectively cleaned - this may include items that can be or
have been washed with soap and water (e.q, vases, glass
ornament^, toys), or wet wiped/HEPA vacuumed (e.g.
wallrapci, walls, baseboards, books, paintings, pictures and
frames!. Even items that have been washed (two times if
particulartv dusty) or dry-cleaned may be kept if all visible
dust has been removed. Only those items which could not be
thoroughly cleaned either due to an especially porous nature
or having small cavities or crevices that could not be reached
need to be disposed of.

• Noise complaints: banging is keeping people awake at night,
who should they call to complain
This is enforced by DEP. Current practice has been to have person
call 1-718- DEP-HELP and tell the operator that the noise is coming
from the barge at West and Harrison St. and that the supervisor on
call should be notified immediately
• Dust: Debt IS is being dispersed through the air
Is DEP or DOH or DEC enforcing the barge dust suppression
protocol at the barge area?
