Frieden, New York City Health Commissioner "We tell it like it is, we do not know if there will be long term health consequences from exposure on 9-11 and we do not know if there are health consequences, what those consequences will be. This roster, this registry of people who were most heavily exposed, is our best chance to know and to know definitively whether there is an impact and what that impact is." 6.

From our standpoint it's proven to be more of a private, closed-door process. One of the leading public comments at the LMDC's "listening to the city event" called for a reduction of commercial space at the World Trade Center site, yet the current plan restores all 10,000,000 square feet of office space at the site and the amount of retail space has been quadrupled." 8.

We found 19,938 body parts. Why wouldn't we want to preserve to bedrock, the footprints of the North and South towers? You answer that question, not us.. We're family, you look at this map and tell me that land should not be preserved for America's memorial. That's all we're trying to do, that's all we've ever tried to do, and it's all we'll continue to do is to preserve this area because of all those little dots." APTN August 2003 12. Various shots Ground Zero under construction STORYLINE: People who worked, lived or just happened to be near the World Trade Centre when it collapsed were urged Friday to enroll in a health registry so officials can determine if there are any long-term health effects from breathing the air filled with smoke, dust and debris. People ranging from business executives to food cart vendors said they would sign up, and health officials called the registry their best chance to know for certain whether the air was filled with hazardous materials. Health officials said the registry was not launched in response to the disclosure last month that the Environmental Protection Agency gave New Yorkers misleading assurances, at the White House's direction, that there was no health risk concerning the air after the twin towers collapsed. More than 300,000 people would have been in the area on that day, Frieden said. He urged anyone who was there for even a short time to register by calling either 311, 866-NYC-WTCR, or by going on the registry Web site: www.wtcregistry.org. People who enroll will undergo a 30-minute telephone survey about where they were on Sept. 11, 2001 and answer questions about their health. No blood tests or medical exams are required to enroll. Health officials will follow up periodically for 20 years. People can drop out of the registry at any time. To advertise the registry, the health department will place posters in subways and other commuter trains in the next few weeks. The size of the redevelopment site is 16 acres.
