DDOT: Advisory: Aug 10, 2006

Water a Young Tree and Help Expand the Tree Canopy in the Nation's Capital
DDOT Director to water three young sycamore trees in Northwest

(Washington, DC) Michelle L. Pourciau, acting Director of the District Department of Transportation (DDOT), will ask residents Friday to partner in the watering of young trees. Last year, DDOT planted roughly 8,000 trees across the District—many of them young street trees along sidewalks. During long hot summers DDOT encourages residents who have young trees along their sidewalks to water trees regularly. DDOT officials and a representative from DDOT partner Casey Trees will discuss watering and detail other measures by which residents can help create more healthy trees across the District.
