-Original Message- From: Chacon, Emity Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 19:10 To: Hagerty, Steve Subject: Letters to FEMA regarding Interior Building Cleaning
Steve, I spoke with my contact at DEP regarding the letters to FEMA from DEP, DoH, Mayor’s Office of Economic Development, and USEPA that clearly validate the environmental, health and economic threats posed by debris inside residential buildings as well as the resulting need for cleaning. Apparently, DEP did not understand that we need four separate letters or that we want DEP to coordinate the preparation and collection of these letters from the four agencies. DEP understood that we only needed one letter from the City as a whole. We received the draft of this one letter from DEP on May 8, 2002. I also mentioned that the language contained in the four letters should, as compared to the draft letter we received on May 8, 2002, be clearer and perhaps more forceful in regards to the threat and the need to perform cleaning. DEP is concerned that this misunderstanding may cause a delay in funding for this program. Please let me know how I should proceed. Thank you, Emily -----Original Message----- From: Ilan, Lee [mailto: [email protected] ] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 1:57 PM To: ‘Gair, Brad’ Cc: Sumowicz, Alessandra: Benson, Sam; Connolly, Gerald; McCarty, Gerard: Picciano, Joe Subject: RE: Status of funding requests
