A. Debris Removal
• Trucks not always wetting down and putting tarps over debris,
whom should they call to complain?
The Health Department enforces this. Take to complaint and pass
on to the app.-opriate person at DOH.
• Why can’t the material on the trucks be containerized?
Ask DDC to comment on this one.
B. Barge
• Noise complaints: bp.iging is keeping people awake at night,
who should they call to jomplain
This is enforced by DEP. Geri Kelpin of DEP has said to have the
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: Debris is being dispersed through the air from the work
at the barge.
DDC enforces dust suppression procedures at Pier 25. However,
DOH keeps a close watch over the Pier 25 operation. DOH Public
Health Sanitarians are on-site and observe the operation dally. In
addition, the air is continuously monitored and a tremendous
amount of data, along with our visual observations, indicates that
dust is not migrating from Pier 25 to the school.
Diesel emissions: By law trucks cannot idle in a line longer than 5
minutes outside the entrance on West Street. DEP is enforcing this
issue.
B. Streets
• Not all streets are being wetted down, which agency can I
report this to?
Take complaint and route to Dept of Sanitation
• Battery Park City residents say dry sweepers are kicking up
dust. There has been a change over the past several weeks
and streets are no longer being wetted down.
