Background/Ctirrent Efforts
City’s involvement in WTC recovery activities
The City remains in charge of many aspects of activities on the WTC site and the surrounding
area and is expected by elected officials and the public to have information on current conditions
and future plans. Various City agencies (Health, DEP, EDC, DDC, OEM) are asked for
information on after-effects of the WTC attacks, air quality issues, and rebuilding endeavors, and
presently there is no mechanism to ensure that each agency knows what others are doing and
how they respond to inquiries. Agency responsibilities at present are as follows:
DDC-contractor supervision, site health and safety, liaison with utilities
DEP-air quality monitoring, maintains 718-DEP-HELP line to answer questions
DOH-public health, guidance for residents
DOT-street closures
