Sandi Richman Department of Examining Attorney Environmental NYC Department of Investigation Protection 50 Maiden Lane 59-17 (unction Boulevard Corona, New York New York, New York 10038 11368-5107 Dear Ms. Richman:
Joel A. Miele Sr., P.E. I am writing in response to your letter of January 15, 2002, regarding Commissioner Riverpoint Inc. and the World Trade Center air sampling project and process.
Riverpoint’s air results, analyzed by Renata Consulting Services (see attachment 1) were forwarded daily from the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) up until December 22, 2001. DEC then forwarded the results to a list of people and agencies, one of whom is [email protected] and another being [email protected]. (see attachment 2). From December 23, 2001, until January 5, 2002, and then from January 15 through January 18, 2002, the samples were analyzed by a different lab, Enviro-Probe Inc. (see attachment 3). DEC was not able to download the file format sent by Enviro-Probe; therefore, DEP had‘been providing weekly updates to DEC with the information in a format provided by EPA. EPA and others receive the air data under this scenario in the same manner as described above.
In response to your inquiry regarding DEP’s attendance at the weekly environmental safety and health meetings, DEP sends <a representative from its Emergency Management Response and Planning Unit,-which had been given that responsibility by the Commissioner’s Office.
Regarding Riverpoint’s sub-contracting its field technicians for air sampling, DEP’s project manager did not make provisions for sub-contracting under the original bid proposal. However, since Riverpoint is ultimately responsible for the testing in the field, DEP does not see a problem with the sub-contracting of field technicians as long as those hired were certified.
Sorry for the delay in responding, but we have been extremely busy dealing with other World Trade Center issues.
Sincerely,
Michael Gilsenan Attachments
