But the federal government kept insisting it was. And compounding the federal governments culpability was its failure to conduct a comprehensive cleanup of the environmental disaster created when the World Trade Center towers collapsed. For example, the e. P. A. Administrator told the public that asbestos could be cleaned from apartments with a damp cloth and wet mop.

People kept working to clear the pile for months with no protective equipment. Quite simpl
