For the start of work to HUEH, a concrete water tower and three buildings have been identified : the pediatrics, the laboratory and the surgery have been transferred temporarily in prefabricated buildings waiting to be rebuilt. "We have taken every precaution to make the demolition safely. We have delimited the site with barriers and we have set up a sprinkler system to prevent the spread of dust generated by the collapse of the building," explains Vladimir Goin, project manager of the NGO Disaster Waste Recovery (DWR). "Our involvement does not stop to the demolition, we put the recyclable debris aside and we send them to the recycling site of the UNOPS to be transformed into building materials such as street paving and Adoquin and this in collaboration with the MTPTC." Located in the neighborhood of Lélio-Morne à Tuf, the hospital of the State University of Haiti is one of the 8,000 buildings to be demolished [classified red]n the metropolitan area of Port-au-Prince, as part of the debris management program.
