DRAFT October 2, 2002 (3:00pm)
EPA, FEMA AND CITY EXTEND DEADLINE TO REGISTER FOR DOWNTOWN CLEANUP AND
TESTING PROGRAM New York. N.Y. ? In response to requests from some residents for more time, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the City of New York, today announced that it will extend the deadline for lower Manhattan residents to sign up for either cleaning and testing or testing only until December 28, 2002 to give downtown residents more time. Under the EPA World Trade Center Residential Dust program, residents living below Canal, Alien and Pike Streets may ask to have their homes cleaned and tested for airborne asbestos by certified asbestos contractors or they may ask for testing alone under EPA’s lower Manhattan cleanup program. To date, 1088 people have requested testing and 4129 have asked for cleaning and testing. The Agency expects to release results of sampling late next week. For more information about the program or to sign up for the program, residents can either visit EPA’s web at www.epa.gov/wtc or call 1-877-796-5471 or (for hearing impaired) 1-800-396-1018.
