Health Consultation: GSA Fleet Management Motor Pool Parcel (a/k/a Lot No. 2, Block 675 at 870 Third Avenue), Borough of Brooklyn, County of Kings, New York 11232

摘要

The Real Property Branch (RPB), Division of Property Management of the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) asked the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to review and evaluate environmental data for potential health concerns from future use of the GSA Fleet Management Motor Pool Parcel in Brooklyn, New York (NY). Redevelopment of the property is proposed in accordance with the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act. The Motor Pool building, used for vehicle maintenance and repair, was constructed around 1920 and has been unoccupied since 2000 (Langan). ATSDR will review existing environmental assessments and documentation pertaining to contaminated surplus property to: (1) identify any health risk related to the site and (2) to recommend health actions, such as incorporating institutional controls in the transfer document, to prevent or mitigate exposure. The evaluation is taking place pursuant to the RPBs proposed Federal Property Assistance Programs Contaminated Property Policy.
