Dear Sir/Madam:'

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection in cooperation with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) has performed a series of exterior building surveys at-fdl buildings in the vicinity of the World Trade Center. The surveys included the examination of Wilding exteriors including building roofs, facades, setbacks, and other exterior surfaces. These surveys identified locations where debris from the collapse of the WTC was still visible. Our records indicate, . that visible dust accumulations were observed at the above referenced building.

In our previous correspondence, the Department requested an assessment and appropriate clean up of visible dust accumulations. The Department has either not received information regarding your actions to address the dust accumulations or has re-inspected your building and visible dust accumulations were still present.

Previous tests have indicated that there is no evidence of significant long­ term health risks to residents and office workers in lower Manhattan. However, the USEPA and DEP are continuing their ongoing efforts to improve air quality in lower Manhattan.
