Andrew Cuomo, to discuss the repair effort late Thursday night, according to a White House official.Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and Federal Emergency Management Agency Deputy Administrator Richard Serino will travel to Staten Island on Friday to meet with state and local officials and inspect recovery efforts.
