occurred to us that we would be in the situation of having contractors sitting idle because they can't schedule appointments," said Stapleton. In an attempt to streamline the process, officials are developing new policies regarding scheduling and cancellation, and expect to post them on the EPA website <https://nyrpub.epa.gov/NYRDUST2/dustcleanup/fonn.html> by week's end.
Lower Manhattan residents who have yet to register for testing are strongly encouraged to do so. According to EPA estimates, the 6,000 registered apartments represent only about a quarter of more than 20,000 eligible residences within the testing area. For residents south of Pike and Canal Streets who have not applied, requests will be accepted until December 28,2002 via the EPA website <https://nvrpub.epa.gov/NYRDUST2/dustcleanup/form.html>, or by calling the EPA's WTC hotline at (877) 796-5471.
