Temporary boiler leftover from Sandy now leaking oil on East 6th Street

It appears that one of the temporary boilers that remain on East Sixth Street at Avenue C outside the NYCHA-owned building is now leaking oil into the street.

Good thing that Sen. Schumer and Mayor de Blasio announced yesterday that $100 million in federal funding will be used to replace temporary boilers in New York City Housing Authority buildings damaged by Hurricane Sandy.

Thanks for the info - NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation is sending an investigator to the location, to get the leak fixed and the street cleaned up - NYSDEC Spill Response Supervisor

If you look at the tree's that canopy above these boilers they are destroyed by soot. Hopefully they aren't totally dead.
