A Day in the Life of a DEP Cleaning Crew: Juggling Schedules and Moving Automobiles
While DEP crews tended to the cleanup in expeditious fashion, they also went to great lengths to ensure that downtown life went undisturbed as they went about their work. “We took into consideration the patterns of everyday life downtown,” said Avaltroni. “As hard as we worked to clean up the area, we strove equally hard to minimize any disruption to residents, businesses and institutions.”
Doing so required some logistical feats on the part of the DEP. In certain cases, building cleanups had to be scheduled at off-hours. For example, the cleanup at St. Peter’s Church at 16 Barclay Street could only be conducted on weeknights from 6 pm to midnight so as not to impede parishioners from entering the church or disturb church services.
In addition to juggling schedules, the DEP became quite adept at moving automobiles parked in front of buildings marked for cleaning despite posted notices. In several cases, the DEP deployed teams of tow trucks to lift cars gingerly from front and back — so as not to damage them — move them away from the cleanup site and then return them once cleanup was completed. In one case where a car could not be moved without risk of damage, DEP crews wrapped the entire vehicle in plastic to protect it.
“We’re proud to have done our part to make Lower Manhattan a better place to live,” said Avaltroni.
