Avaltroni, Robert From: Avaltroni, Robert Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 10:12AM To: '[email protected]' Cc: '[email protected]'; Ward, Chris Subject: FW:MTA
attbmsvh.dat Kathy, As per our discussions, we are vehemently opposed to the MTA posting. As discussed, unfortunately, this has never been run through Chris Ward or myself and in fact contradicts the position we chose to take since the inception of the program. EPA has done a terrific outreach job and the people of Lower Manhattan need to be reassured that the cleaning methods employed since inception, accompanied by a multi-faceted cleanup initiative, gives them reason to be confident as they pursue their goals living and working in Lower Manhattan.

Sharon and Bob, I think that we need Dan D. and Chris W. to weigh in on this immediately with Jane Kenney to make the NYC position clear.
Please advise. Brad Gair FEMA WTC Federal Recovery Office 646.746.1888 (office) 917.842.7947 (mobile) —Original Message— From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected] ] Sent: Monday, November 18,2002 5:54 PM To: Gair, Brad Cc: [email protected] SubJecLRe: MTA «attbm3yh.dat» Mr. Gair, EPA has continued to work with MTA on the possibility of the posting of information on the Residential Cleanup Program. We believe postings in the subway stations and bus kiosks in lower Manhattan will be a good final outreach effort for the registration aspect of the program. Subsequent to our meeting on Thursday I reaffirmed that we had cleared this and informed Bob Avaltroni that we had discussed with NYC DEP of our efforts with Verizon and the MTA through Charlie Sturcken. IfFEMAor NYC■ DIlEP have reservations about how the program outreach might work, you should certainly raise them with the MTA. The MTA may share them. As we discussed on Thursday, we will work with Laurel Blatchford on using the program data results as part of the City's outreach efforts in lower Manhattan, which I am confdent will be a great advantage. To that end we contacted Laurel on Friday. EPA and NYC DEP also met on Friday to discuss further the issues related to evaluation and cleanup of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems 1
