DEP made several good faith attempts to access the apartment and were rebuffed. This is not a situation with post abatement clearance requirements and DEP doesn't have a mandate to inspect. Since they may never get access I suggest we modify the note on the chart (change in bold):
Building 11 Notes: Residence 2 was unoccupied when tested and was referred to DEP for reinspection. DEP was denied access to reinspect and will further attempt to reinspect this apartment. According to the landlord the apartment was cleaned prior to reoccupancy.

»> Nancy Jeffery 04/09/02 05:07PM »> Hi Mary,
I wanted to let you know that the sampling plan is already a public document and is available on the NYC DOH website.
With regards to the Asbetos Summary Table, the results actually reflect low levels of asbetsos when detected, and the follow-up actions taken are reflected in the notes for specific buidlings.
Also, I think it's important to understand, that individual letters with the asbestos results have already been provided to each building owner/manager and occupants of the residences tested. This would not be the first time individuals are seeing their results.
I hope this clarifies the issue. We would like to get this out for the public soon, so please let us know if you have add'l concerns...thanks.

Thank you for your email. I will discuss this matter with Dr. Miller.
