Subject: [CPEO-BIF] Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics (NY, NY)
 
The New York City school building on the East 115th Street Manufactured Gas Plant site is currently home to the Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics (MCSM) and the Isaac Newton Junior High School of Science and Math. Though most of the Gas Plant was demolished 70 years ago, some structures and residual contamination remain on site. Consolidated Edison (Con Ed), which purchased the property from the original plant operator, and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) have proposed a six-part remedy. The MCSM Parents' Association retained the Center for Public Environmental Oversight to review the site documents and prepare comments on the proposed cleanup.
