Residential/Commercial Indoor Cleaning and Sampling
The sampling and cleanup of residences may be needed at certain locations. EPA is still waiting
to hear estimates from New York City Agencies on the total number of buildings that may need
interior abatement At this time, EPA is estimating that up to 5 residences may require
cleanup and sampling. This estimate is approximately 45% of the 1 l,i residences identified in
a 10-block radius of the WTC. Cleanup of the interiors of the building will proceed according to
lessons learned above. Chemicals of concern will be developed with the assistance of the
advisory/peer review group based on information collected to date.
Cost of Cleanup and Sampling: 5,'BBS Residencies

4) Communications Clearinghouse/Outreach Efforts
a) Establish an Office (Clearinghouse) to Respond to Community Concerns
EPA and its federal, state and local partners have completed an extensive amount of
communication and outreach activities in response to the collapse of the WTC. Each of the
Agencies has provided information through web sites, press releases, and community meetings.
However, the WTC was an unprecedented event and there is a requirement to extend our
outreach activities to instill confidence and to ensure the public that regulatory Agencies are
taking the proper steps to protect human health. As a first step, a location (e.g., trailer, rental
space) will be established and staffed daily with multi-agency support for lower Manhattan
citizens to visit and ask questions about clean up and sampling.
General Costs: $400,000
OSHA Costs: (per diem, travel/4months) $120,000
Total $520,000
b) Develop and maintain a database of cleanup progress of buildings
The database will consist of approximately 100,iS3 sample analyses and survey results received
