Good afternoon,

 

The document in this link summarizes some important laws affecting both public and private trees in the District. Feel free to download and share: http://1.usa.gov/15ycd1A.

 

Also, DDOT's Urban Forestry Administration is almost finished planting about 7,000 new street trees that are available for adoption: http://ddot.dc.gov/canopykeepers or call 311.

 

 

Thank you and please let any of us know if you have questions,
