They've always been law-abiding and peaceful in NY for the month so far. Even in the face of police brutality. Why would you think they would not be?
The plan is complete peaceful resistance at this stage. Timing is good, it can be televised live on the morning shows. Bloomberg will suffer, OWS is too popular with the public.
Lec Walesa is going to join them, but nobody knows for sure what time he'll get to New York.

they were told repeatedly to leave one portion of the area that they had encamped on, and were arrested for trespassing. there's mention of 150k in shrubs being damaged as well.
