The city, through this program, will be cleaning a small number of commercial spaces in the
unoccupied, uncleaned buildings and will also be cleaning building roofs and facades. FEMA is
supporting this program, because there is a need to expedite the work in order to prevent any re-
entrainment of debris or dust from the WTC collapse. Re-entrainment could pose increased long
term health threats and slow the economic redevelopment of Lower Manhattan. The removal of
the residual dust makes sense now that the recovery efforts at Ground Zero are nearly complete.
