The NYC Sanitation Department is congratulating Javier Lojan as he takes office as Acting Commissioner of the DSNY to replace Jessica Tisch, who was sworn in today as NYPD Commissioner. 

Commissioner Lojan started with DSNY as a Sanitation Worker on the streets of Manhattan 25 years ago, and slowly worked his way up to the commissioner’s position. He has served in several departments and in multiple positions over the years, earning three stars for his service to the city. Since 2022 he has been serving as Director of Administration, and has now accepted the position of commissioner.
