RE: 7 World Trade Center
Violation #10054908-4
Dear Ms. O' Connor:
On November 2Sth, of 1989, one of your inspectors,
Lt. Joseph A. Pupino made an unannounced visit tc our facility
at #7 World Trade Center in New York City. According to
Chapter #19 of the New York City Administrative Code,
"Inspections shall be made on an annual basis."
We, on the other hand, recently had an inspection in June 13,
1989, only five (5) months previous to our recent visit. We
complied with all three (3) violations on your last visit and
again rule #19, "Affidavits/Bocumentation,^Plans should be
updated as deemed necessary." The Fire Safety Plan was recently
updated in cur last violation report and is hereby submitted
again, in its entirety. We, at 7 World Trade, feel that our
format and guidelines, only 6 months revised is a more adaptable
plan than the one which your inspector submitted, which hasn't
been revised since August of 1972. Our format has been approved
by the Fire Safety Director of the Port Authority, from which we
are a contingent. Your department, also accepted and approved
the Fire Safety Plan back on April 18,1988.
(B) Rule #6 - Signs, Postings and Instructions
Failed to provide signs properly orientating the floor
diagram on the 11th and 12th floor. In addition,
provide and post fail safe re-entry signs on all doors
on occupancy side of stairway A and B.
(1) The floor diagram signs on both the 11th
and 12th floors were previously approved by
the Port Authority Inspectors, prior tc
issuance of a C.O. However, in good faith.
we have instructed the tenant research
the diagram further,, and turn same 180
degrees around tc conform ’w i t h the
positioning that your inspector
requested.
