You Have the Power to Help
Rid the River of Toxics

The District Department of the Environment (DDOE) will soon be starting fieldwork
to investigate contaminants in the Anacostia River in an effort to determine a comprehensive
cleanup plan consistent with federal Superfund law. DDOE officials have just announced
two opportunities for the public to get involved and we would love your help voicing
the opinions of our community!

Here are your opportunities:

* You can fill out an online survey [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001AbQkv1PLTef_1_29TfBuZ-iMe2iX5ywJ7TTSkDAT-07uA2fHcffZg-n23vlYQozuS6zlw5hRzEutzrqhPCbKaUjr-aoaDoA9QHecPZx7av3Ye3-tkV4u-jV1p9klehFoKQDKYqHh_qayvo5SXfwJ740-N8PoxyL6E0xsxx7RO37F5ph54a5IhE6Zr7_5e-dtvhVWfob_POD5yjvSjkFTHndHcJZeQf2lxd9j6vHByXOGZwl9RaN34Rkw_gSCNHfr7TDS3DDEAAbX5tsDl3uhEoxYa8z47GtVy7zCHbIRhMqVc3oV-gmxGg==&c=N8SdKrEUQrSGw5AHnhuzaErlVofJWJeZsHIUyHxPE8JgxOhga29vMg==&ch=qpJwmwdPo7xqbmaRFupFjHg2ipa6rg6fbLOsNOxx9h7KDMwi1qF3hQ==]
to let DDOE know your feelings on the initiative and help further shape the Community
Involvement Plan. The deadline to submit this survey is June 6th.
* You can attend a public meeting to learn about updates on the project, results
 from the survey above, and to get your questions answered, on June 17th from 6:30pm
- 8:30pm.The meeting will be held in the Department of Employment Services Community
Room located at 4058 Minnesota Ave., NE, Washington DC 20019.

It's Time to Consider a Green Roof of Your Own

Spring is finally here! Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping, and now is a wonderful
time to install a green roof on your home or business. Green roofs are a great way
to help improve your environment by reducing stormwater runoff and creating habitats
for animals such as birds and butterflies. They are also a great way to conserve
 energy and lower you electric bill in the hot summer months by improving the insulation
capacity of your home or business.

Now is an especially great time because the District's Green Roof Rebate Program
 has been EXPANDED! Residents, institutions and businesses within the District are
now eligible to receive rebates of $7 to $15 per square foot on a first-come, first-served
basis. Register and Apply by June 15th to participate in this year's rebate program.
