I have a 1:30 meeting that should be done by 3, and then will be all set. I can also talk over the
weekend if that makes sense for you.

Jessica -
1 owe you an apology b/c 1 realized late last night when I got home and checked my personal cell
for messages that you had called. I am sorry not to get back to you. 1 am absolutely eager to
discuss this. Perhaps we can touch base tomorrow? My afternoon looks pretty open - perhaps we
can set a phone date?
Also, if there's something in writing, perhaps you can pass it along so that 1 can be fully informed
when we talk?
Thanks and look forward to talking with you soon.
Laurel

In the FEMA proposal that DEP is coordinating,the DOH was hoping to include some funding for
risk communication activities for lower manhattan. Bob Avaltroni mentioned that you were
requesting funding for communication issues as well. 1 would like to coordinate on what we
would like to include. 1 think they are probably distinct areas.
From our side, it is likely that DOH will need to continue to respond to community issues, conduct
community presentations, respond to health issues related to indoor air results and prepare
materials in response to press or public concerns. Additionally, we would like to put together
