Hello -
Please join us for the next in our regular monthly series of free
Department of the Interior Library Park Ranger Speaker Series lectures,
"The National Natural Landmarks Program" next Tuesday, December 18th
from 1:00 - 1:45 pm in the DOI Library.
The National Park Service's National Natural Landmarks Program (NNLP)
recognizes and encourages the conservation of outstanding examples of
our country's natural history. It is the only natural areas program of
national scope that identifies and recognizes the best examples of
biological and geological features in both public and private ownership.
National Natural Landmarks are designated by the Secretary of the
Interior, with the owner's concurrence. To date, just under 600 sites
have been designated. The National Park Service administers this
program, and if requested, assists landmark owners and managers with the
conservation of these important sites.
Please join NNLP Manager Heather Germaine for a look at the National
Natural Landmarks Program and how for 45 years this program has worked
with both the public and private sector to preserve our nation’s unique
natural landmarks.
All are welcome to attend, government and general public. The
Department of the Interior Library is located in the Main Interior
Building, located at 1849 C Street, NW, Room 1151 in Washington.
Please call the DOI Library at (202) 208-3796 or contact us via e-mail
at [log in to unmask] if you have any questions.
