Gilsenan, Michael From: Gerald Pryor [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, November 11, 2002 2:58 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Gilsenan, Michael; [email protected]; [email protected] .epa.gov Subject: Recleaniing windows and fire escapes in airshaft of 125 Cedar St.

Dear Kathy, Thank you for stating that the window sills and fire escapes in the airshaft of 125 Cedar Street will be recleaned as a result of the repointing of the fascade that is taking place at 110 Liberty Street . As you know, 110 Liberty Street and 125 Cedar Street share a common airshaft. During the walkthrough with the DEP and the EPA on Friday November 8,2002, there was at least a 1/2" of white "dust" on all the windows and fire escapes and the blasting of the bricks was causing more to accumulate as we watched. Donald Graham from your office called to say that you had instructed Mike Gilsenan from the DEP that the recleaning should take place in the very near future and that the cleaning would be done by the same contractors who cleaned our interior spaces, ensuring that the tenants of 125 Cedar Street would be able to open their windows without this "dust" blowing inside. Please know that on late Friday afternoon, my wife had a conversation with Krish form the DEP who was unaware that the airshaft was to be recleaned and seriously questioned that the cleaning would take place at all. Perhaps the decision to reclean had not yet been relayed to Krish . We would appreciate being informed when the cleaning will take place. Thank you for understanding the problem and for promptly taking action to rectify the situation. Sincerely, Gerald Pryor
