Executive Summary On May 7,1993, the New York City Department of Health (DOH), the New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA), and the Mt. Sinai Occupational Health Clinic convened an expert panel on Stachybotrys atra in Indoor Environments. The purpose of the panel was to develop policies for medical and environmental evaluation and intervention to address Stacbybotrys atra (now known as Stacbybot/ys cbartarum (SC)) contamination. The original guidelines were developed because of mold growth problems in several New York City buildings in the early 199O's.
