Eight national parks in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia have concluded this year’s annual operations to reduce overabundant white-tailed deer. These parks donated more than 13,000 pounds of venison to local nonprofit organizations that will serve approximately 55,000 meals to families in need.  

The National Park Service (NPS), in partnership with the District of Columbia Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE), is expected to begin a creek restoration project this fall for the Fort Dupont Creek watershed located in and around Fort Dupont Park in southeast Washington, D.C.
