Moses issued an August 2003 ruling requiring the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to release transcripts of radio communications between its staff that took place during the September 11 attacks . The release of the information had been part of an agreement between the Port Authority and '' The New York Times '' , but the agency had backed out of the deal days later in response to privacy concerns of the victim 's families . An attorney from the newspaper hailed Moses 's decision and stated that the " transcripts will help to better understand how emergency operations were handled " within the World Trade Center complex
