NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document
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 appropriate per'son at DOH.
• Why can’t the material on the trucks be contamerized?
Ask DDC to comment on this one.
B. Barge
• Noise complaints: banging is keeping people awake at night,
who should they call to complain
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 daily. 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 arc 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.
