Cert Description
"On September 11, 2001, the residents in Battery Park City were the most impacted by the terrible events of that day. Many of our residents worked in the World Trade Center and/or lived within a hundred yards of Ground Zero. The damage, dislocation, and general chaos surrounding that day has been a motivatiing force in establishing the Battery Park City CERT organization. In November 2003 sixty three members completed the FEMA CERT courses and became certified CERT members. Another 20 volunteers will begin training in 2004. Our BPC CERT's Team Supervisor and FEMA certified CERT Train-the-Trainer, is Peter A. Morici, POC 1-347-408-5345. Battery Park City has 16,000 residents in the area from Chambers Street to Battery Park, west of West Street. The BPC CERT has two medical teams, each headed by an MD, with each having at least 2 RN's and 2 EMT's included. More than 30 members of the BPC CERT have begun a 5 month EMT training course. Residents of the Battery Park area and employees in the World Financial Center who are interested in becoming members should call 212-432-2428 or email to "BPCCERT@aol.com".
