The Mysterious Final Load from Ground Zero

The following is an email about a mysterious final load that was removed from the World Trade Center in July 2002 when the clean-up of Ground Zero ended. I sent this email to the Lawyers' Committee and Richard Gage earlier this year.

RE: The Mysterious Final Load from Ground Zero
Messrs Meiswinkle, Harrison, and Gage,
I spoke to you about this matter briefly and want to give you more information about the "final load" that was taken from the clean-up site of the World Trade Center in the summer of 2002. I have tried many times to reach the two people involved in this operation without luck.
The tip for this story came from a truck driver who worked for Logano Trucking at the time.
At the end of the clean-up operation at the WTC, the office of Logano Trucking was asked to bring a special container (50 cu. yards) for a hazardous material load to be taken to the CWMC hazardous material disposal site near Model City, NY.

Her name is Lindsay Kelly and she still works with the company, which is now known as RED Technologies. She works with asbestos and hazardous material orders. She would have been about 21 in 2001 and it was very unusual that she went with to get this "live load" to be taken to upstate New York.

According to the driver, Gamberale and Kelly stayed in NYC overnight and drove the load to upstate NY to the CWMC near Niagara Falls in the morning.
