Eddie Saman cleans out his house, which was damaged by Superstorm Sandy, as it begins to snow in the New Dorp section of Staten Island, New York, Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2012. Uncounted numbers of families have returned to coastal homes that are contaminated with mold, which can aggravate allergies and leave people perpetually wheezing. Others have been sleeping in houses filled with construction dust, as workers have ripped out walls and flooring. That dust can sometimes trigger asthma. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)
