Occupy DC Allowed to Keep On Occupying D.C. Park

By Ryan Tracy and Jared A. Favole

The Occupy DC encampment two blocks from the White House will remain occupied, at least for now.

Federal authorities said Tuesday they have no plans to remove protesters alignedwith the Occupy Wall Street movement. Officials from the National Park Service, theagency in charge of McPherson Square Park where the protesters are camping, metwith activists to discuss discussing expectations for health and safety and decidedagainst eviction.

I believe there's been pretty good compliance," Sgt. David Schlosser of the U. S.

Park Police said afterwards. That stands in stark contrast to New York City, where hundreds of riot -clad city policeofficers early Tuesday moved to clear Zuccotti Park of protesters and their tents. Similar crackdowns were under way in Oakland, Calif., and Portland, Ore. Since the federal government administers parks in the nation' s capital, the Obamaadministration has authority over the protests here. White House spokesman JayCamey didn' t address the Washington protests directly Tuesday, but he said thatPresident Barack Obama was aware of raids elsewhere and that the presidentbelieves each city should make its own decision about how to handle the protests. We would hope and want as these decisions are made that a balance is sought

between a long tradition of freedom of assembly and freedom of speech in thiscountry ... and also the very important need to maintain law and order and health and

00034367 NPS - USPP -B02- 00006 - 000006 Page 1 of 2

safety standards," Mr. Carney said. Joe Gray, a 23- year -old protester who has been living at the McPherson Squareencampment since October, said efforts to shut down the protests wouldn' t work.

The more they poke the bear, the angrier it gets," he said.

Mr. Gray quit a job restoring fire - damaged homes earlier this year and is looking forwork. For now, he plans to camp out at the square through the winter. " I' m actuallykind of excited for the cold weather," he joked. " It's going to send the fair - weatheroccupiers home."

A small group of demonstrators, under ten, stayed on the north side of McPherson Square untiljust before midnIg -bt with hand _he4 signs. Sgt. - Griffith- reported that when- the- demonstratorsshowed up earlier in the day, they originally brought sleeping bags with them, but were dissuadedby daywork personnel. Facebook and the left wing news sites are trying to build up the idea ofOccupy K St. with a camp in McPherson Square like the Occupy Wall Street protests in New York.

Structure has been totally removed.

The number of protesters has dwindled significantly.

USPP plans to reopen the southern portion of the park in the near future.

NPS will coordinate the removal of the light towers tomorrow morning.

A transition of command has occurred. Previous operational period personnel have been relieved.

Unified Command demob'd.

USPP Command as follows:

IC - Major Pat SmithOPS - Capt Phil Beck

Mobile Command remains.

Just wanted to thank all involved. By all accounts, the professionalism and dedication of the NPS, USPP, and all external partners, was evident.

Subject McPherson order

FYI you already may be aware

Occupy DC obtains federal judge's order against surprise eviction of McPhersonSquare occupation

Occupy DC' s legal team today obtained an order from a federal judge prohibiting the Park Police fromconducting a surprise eviction of McPherson Square.

The order came in the wake of Sunday's police actions at the occupation of McPherson Square that led tothirty -one arrests, the barricading of a third of the park and the demolition of a structure erected for publicmeetings and other activities. Immediately after the demolition, Park Police stated they might remove tentswithin the barricaded area and refused to allow protesters to reenter. After Occupy DC' s legal team movedtowards filing for an injunction, police removed the barricades, left tents intact and reopened the entirety ofMcPherson Square.

During today' s half -hour hearing, the government stated that it had made no decision as to whether or notit intended to use anti - camping laws against the occupation. The National Park Service has previouslystated that participants in the occupation "...are allowed to have a 24 -hour vigil and they are allowed to

have structures to go along with it."

US District Court judge James Boasberg issued the following order:

1) The Government will provide 24 -hour notice to the Court and Plaintiffs counsel if it intends toenforce its regulations prohibiting camping or sleeping in McPherson Square; 2) Absent suchnotice or exigent circumstances, the Government will not restrict Plaintiffs access to the Squareor his camping or sleeping in the Square.

The judge set a schedule for submission of motions with a hearing on Jan. 31, 2012 at 10AM.

According to the legal team, this means that there should be no surprise eviction between now and Jan. 31 -there will be a court hearing before any attempt at an eviction.

All day and into the night, the police were being taunt& Insults and sometimes water bottles were hurled their ;`+vay. Cameras were pointed at them from every direction

Yet, as they have done throughout the downtown dramaknown as Occupy D. C., the U. S. Park Police and D. C. officers

displayed remarkable discipline and restraint Sunday duringtheir confrontation with protesters in McPherson Square.

Even as they arrested 31 Occupiers , the officers didn' tbecome a laughing stock Internet meme . They didn' tsuccumb to the brutality we witnessed in Oakland, or the

appallingly brazen pepper - spraying that was filmed at 1e

University of California at Davis .

And that' s saying something, given the reality show -stylestunt the police were asked to pull off Sunday night, afterpark protesters living in tents erected the bones of a smallbarn.

OP -ED: Police maintain professionalism in Occupy D.C. confrontation

http:// www. washingtonpost.comllocal/police- maintain- professionalism -in- occupydc- confrontation /2011 /12 /05 /gIOAXWsXWO print.html

All day and into the night, the police were being taunted. Insults and sometimeswater bottles were hurled their way. Cameras were pointed at them from everydirection.

Yet, as they have done throughout the downtown drama known as Occupy D.C., the U.S. Park Police and D.C. officers displayed remarkable discipline and

restraint Sunday during their confrontation with protesters in McPherson Square. Even as they arrested 31 Occupiers, the officers didn' t become a laughing stockInternet meme. They didn' t succumb to the brutality we witnessed in Oakland, orthe gppallingly brazen pepper - sprang that was filmed at the University ofCalifornia at Davis.

And that' s saying something, given the reality show -style stunt the police wereasked to pull off Sunday night, after park protesters living in tents erected thebones of a small barn.

For any structure in the square to be legal, it has to be temporary. But there wasnothing temporary about the sturdy two -by -fours that made up the new building' sbones.

Its construction was pure provocation of a police force that has already beenstunningly accommodating and patient with the Occupy protesters.

Police asked them to take the barn down. They said no. Instead, some of themclimbed up to the top, where they prostrated themselves, crucifixion style, on therafters or straddled them like jungle gym bars and occasionally fist- pumped to thecrowd below.

Occupy DC' s legal team today obtained an order from a federal judge prohibiting the Park Police fromconducting a surprise eviction of McPherson Square.

The order came in the wake of Sunday's police actions at the occupation of McPherson Square that led tothirty -one arrests, the barricading of a third of the park and the demolition of a structure erected for publicmeetings and other activities. Immediately after the demolition, Park Police stated they might remove tentswithin the barricaded area and refused to allow protesters to reenter. After Occupy DC' s legal team movedtowards filing for an injunction, police removed the barricades, left tents intact and reopened the entirety ofMcPherson Square.

During today's half -hour hearing, the government stated that it had made no decision as to whether or notit intended to use anti - camping laws against the occupation. The National Park Service has previouslystated that participants in the occupation "...are allowed to have a 24 -hour vigil and they are allowed tohave structures to go along with it."


1) The Government will provide 24 -hour notice to the Court and Plaintiffs counsel if it intends toenforce its regulations prohibiting camping or sleeping in McPherson Square; 2) Absent suchnotice or exigent circumstances, the Government will not restrict Plaintiffs access to the Squareor his camping or sleeping in the Square.

Subject RE: Occupy DC versus other park users - I count toolD

Dear Ms. DeWitt:

This responds to your e-mail to Deputy Superintendent Karen Cucurullo dated November 28, 2011, that asks about the National Park Service (NPS) regulation that authorizes temporarystructures as well as a copy of the Court ruling referred to in her e-mail to you dated November25, 2011.

We are pleased to provide you with the information you requested. As for the NPS regulation on

temporary structures, the introductory sentence of 36 CFR 7.96(g)( 5)( iv) specifically providesthat temporary structures are allowed as part of a permitted demonstration " for the purpose ofsymbolizing a message or meeting logistical needs such as first aid facilities, lost children areasor the provision ofshelter for electrical and other sensitive equipment or displays."

As for the Court ruling, attached is a copy of Clark v. Communityfor Creative Non- Violence , 468 U.S. 288 ( 1984), where the Supreme Court upheld the NPS camping regulation, and notedthat allowing the two symbolic tent cities " left the demonstration intact, with its symbolic city, signs, and the presence ofthose who were willing to take their turns in a day- and -night vigil." Please also note that the duration ofa demonstration is not limited by the National Park Service' sNational Capital Region. This stems from the Court ofAppeals decision in Quaker Action v

Morton , 516 F2d 717, 734 (D.C. Cir. 1975), that struck down as invalid the NPS regulatoryrestriction on the duration ofdemonstrations. Since then, 24/7 demonstration/ vigils are a rare but

regular feature in some ofthe Federal parks in Washington DC, which generally are never closed.

Finally, the National Park Service and United States Park Police fully agree that people have theright to protest. We also share your concern that people using parkland should also comply withapplicable laws and regulations. In that regard, we have taken proactive steps as well as

distributed the Notice dated November 23, 2011 and found on our website at

www.nps.gov /nama/parkmgmttupload/ FreedomPlazaMcPhersonNotification _Nov23_201 l .pdf ,

that reminds people of the NPS camping regulation and that temporary structures may not beused for camping. In the event that voluntary compliance does not occur, consistent with FirstAmendment jurisprudence, the National Park Service and United States Park Police plan to take

a reasoned and measured approach to achieve compliance, while hoping to avoid the civildisorder that has occurred in other jurisdictions.

Thank you for your response. I found it inaccurate in claiming to follow the letter of thelaw - -

I certainly appreciate the right to protest under constitutional law - however, this right

does not supersede current laws requiring permits or acts already prohibited by federalregulation etc. Federal law prohibits camping overnight in the McPherson Square Park - period. This OCCUPY camp by federal regulations definition is not a protest - but a

newly formed shanty town.

Please send me the court ruling which you refer to below by the statement - "the courts

have ruled that temporary structures that support First Amendment activities areallowed." I would like that as soon as possible as we are taking further action.

According to The Code of Federal regulations, Title 36, Parks, Forests, and Public property - temporary structures may not be used outsidedesignated camping areas (McPherson Square does not have a federallydesignated camping area) for living accommodation activities such as sleeping, or making preparations to sleep including the laying down of beddings for thepurpose of sleep, or storing personal belongings or making fire, or ... the above

listed activities constitute camping when it reasonably appears in light of all thecircumstance, that the participants in conducting these activities are in fact usingthis as a living accommodation regardless of the intent of the participants or thenature ofany other activities in which they may also be engaging.

They can certainly protest, they can get a permit and march or picket - but they cannotcamp in a federal park that is not specially designated for camping.

Ms Dewitt:

On behalf of the National Mall and Memorial Parks Superintendent Robert

Vogel, United States Park Police Chief Teresa Chambers, Regional Director,

National Capital Region, Steve Whitesell, and Deputy Regional Director, National Capital Region, Lisa Mendelson - lelmini, I offer this response toyour letter.

Thank you for your inquiry, it is our hope that the following informationwill provide helpful information on the role and responsibilities of theNational Park Service ( NPS) and its United States Park Police ( USPP) and

the actions we are taking to address your concerns.

The National Park Service has a long and proud tradition of providingopportunities for the exercise of First Amendment rights. The national

parks of Washington, DC, are used almost daily as places for reflection, commemoration, recreational activities, demonstrations, and public events

and by citizens such as you who use the parks for personal enjoyment. The

National Park Service protects and interprets our important cultural and

natural resources, and the United States Park Police ensure the safety andsecurity of park resources as well as persons who use the common space.

While the sudden appearance of the " encampment" is disturbing to many, the

courts have ruled that temporary structures that support First Amendmentactivities are allowed. As a result, enforcement action in this area is

limited and challenging. The USPP will continue to focus their enforcement

efforts on illegal behaviors and activities that are observed and reported.

Since the beginning of the activities in McPherson Square and FreedomPlaza, the National Park Service has provided additional trash receptacles

and has emptied them at least three times each day. Rodent traps have been

placed in the parks, and those who are maintaining a vigil within the parkhave been requested to clear their trash and debris at the conclusion of

each day' s events. Portable toilet facilities have been placed within the

park at the NPS' s request and at the organizer' s expense. Please contact

the National Mall and Memorial Parks if there are additional concerns that

have not been addressed at 202 -245 -4661.

The USPP has been working with the Metropolitan Police Department ( MPD) on

monitoring the groups' activities within the city, and the USPP regularlypatrols our parks to enforce laws and regulations and those that

specifically affect the quality of life. We encourage the public to

contact the USPP to report criminal activity or quality of life violationsat 202 - 610 -7500 so that individuals responsible for these violations can beidentified and appropriate action taken.

00034367 NPS- WDC -B05- 00001 - 000003 Page 4 of 6 -

We appreciate your taking the time to share your concerns. If there is anyway we may be of further assistance in providing information and insight, please let us know. The NPS and the USPP remain committed to the citizenswho live near, work near, or use the parks for their enjoyment. We

routinely meet with the business community and would be willing to attendcitizen group meetings if you think this would be valuable in maintainingour relationships.

lust spent 50 minutes being transferred from one national park departmentto the other - no one taking responsibility for this mess you all havecreated.

I have been a resident of DC for three years. In that time I have paid myfair share of federal and DC taxes, donated to charities and supportedseveral volunteer efforts. I live across from McPherson Square Park and

almost every Saturday took my book into the book and read. Almost everynight I would feed the ducks with bread I purchased at CVS. I fed the

squirrels with the nuts Peapod delivered to my door. I am a single mom - myhusband passed away six years ago - and I work very hard to pay for two

00034367 NPS- WDC -B05- 00001 - 000003 Page 5 of 6

children in college and keep a roof over my head. Do you have any idea howhard that is to do? I am not some spoiled trust fund baby.

Now the ducks are gone, the squirrels are gone and my park bench no longeravailable thanks to by Occupy DC. The grass is ruined, the trash ishorrendous and the rat population has at least tripled. At night I get tolisten to their parties, I see under age minors camping there without adultsupervision. I get to hear sex, see public urination and be subjected to

early morning drums when I have my one day off - Saturday. Even worse is

the knowledge that my tax dollars support this irresponsible behavior bythe city and federal park service and that you provide police protection tothem as they march and as they disturb my peace, my travel to and fromwork.

Sounds to me like you don' t recognize who votes for you - and who buttersyour bread with their labor. It isn' t Occupy DC - it isn' t the new

generation of class warfare you are propping up - it is me. I amdisgusted. I am angry and want this to end. Yesterday I read that theOccupy DC residents at McPherson Square expect to stay into next year. I

sincerely hope this is not the case. They need to go home and have someoneelse support them if they are not willing to work. I have no desire to payfor this via my tax dollars you take from me in so many ways. They do nothave a permit and it is unlawful for them to be there. If I tried to campin one of these parks you would make me leave -

There are thousands of us unhappy and complaining about them - why are younot hearing us?

Just spent 50 minutes being transferred from one national park departmentto the other - no one taking responsibility for this mess you all havecreated.

I have been a resident of DC for three years. In that time I have paid myfair share of federal and DC taxes, donated to charities and supported

several volunteer efforts. I live across from McPherson Square Park and

almost every Saturday took my book into the book and read. Almost everynight I would feed the ducks with bread I purchased at CVS. I fed the

squirrels with the nuts Peapod delivered to my door. I am a single mom - my

husband passed away six years ago - and I work very hard to pay for twochildren in college and keep a roof over my head. Do you have any idea howhard that is to do? I am not some spoiled trust fund baby.

Now the ducks are gone, the squirrels are gone and my park bench no longeravailable thanks to by Occupy DC. The grass is ruined, the trash is

horrendous and the rat population has at least tripled. At night I get to

listen to their parties, I see under age minors camping there without adultsupervision. I get to hear sex, see public urination and be subjected to


the knowledge that my tax dollars support this irresponsible behavior bythe city and federal park service and that you provide police protection tothem as they march and as they disturb my peace, my travel to and fromwork.

Sounds to me like you don' t recognize who votes for you - and who butters

your bread with their labor. It isn' t Occupy DC - it isn' t the new

generation of class warfare you are propping up - it is me. I am

disgusted. I am angry and want this to end. Yesterday I read that theOccupy DC residents at McPherson Square expect to stay into next year. I

sincerely hope this is not the case. They need to go home and have someoneelse support them if they are not willing to work. I have no desire to payfor this via my tax dollars you take from me in so many ways. They do nothave a permit and it is unlawful for them to be there. If I tried to campin one of these parks you would make me leave -

There are thousands of us unhappy and complaining about them - why are you

not hearing us?

While 1 believethat Sergeant Schlosser can provide back -up information regarding our role, I don't believe this is a USPPstory. We are approaching this from a pretty interesting community policing perspective (especiallyMcPherson), so there actually is some positive information to share in addition to the growing number ofarrests that are made (again, primarily at McPherson), almost on a daily basis.

Thanks for taking my call. Please see the email below from WPost reporter AnnieGowen. Gowen called me and asked to speak to "whoever is making all the decisions aboutOccupy DC and we want to talk to as high up the ladder or as low down the ladder as to who orwhich persons are making the decisions about Occupy DC." Gowen directly mentioned JonJarvis' name, directly mentioned Secretary Salazar's name, and directly mentioned U. S. ParkPolice Chief Teresa Chambers' name. As you can see, Gowen wants to talk this week, as she

is writing for next Sunday. Also please note that Gowen is working closely with WPost reporter Tim Craig, who filed

a Freedom of Information ( FOIA) Request today, asking for copies of emails and othercorrespondence between Steve Whitesell, Bob Vogel ( NAMA), Ann Bowman Smith (PresidentsPark) and me on the issue of Occupy DC.

Subject RE: Occupy DC versus other park users - I count too!

Thank you for your response. This isn' t an us against them issue - this is

about respecting one another and all of us being able to use the park. I

cannot understand why you allow them to take over the whole park. If I want to

sit on my normal bench as I did every Saturday and read before this debacle - may I be afforded the same right to space? Will you remove them for me for a

few hours on Saturday?

You must be aware that 95% of the temporary structures are for campingsleeping purposes) - and the Washington Post reported today that no permit

for protesting purposes has been issued. So the 30 year old court cases you

refer to are not the same. Those cases had permits. From the Post:

On Monday, a U. S. District judge ruled that the National Park Service must

give protesters some notice if it moves to evict them, except for in emergencysituations. A protester had sought the ruling clarifying his rights if theNational Park Service decides to evict protesters, who have been camping atMcPherson Square without a permit since Oct. 1."

By your delay, another layer of trouble to return our park to its former

beauty ahas been added to the mix. I hope that you will take the steps

necessary to evict them. It is one thing to claim a peaceable vigil - but theycannot claim peace as they have caused physical damage to the park.

What is the expected cost of repair to McPherson Park when they leave?

In the past court cases you mentioned, the vigil area did not negate those

parks from being used by others. Occupy DC is a shanty town born upon thebacks of hard working tax paying citizens. Those whoo support the park with

tax dollars cannot use the park. Where is the justice for us in this?

Please understand, although many of the inhabitants are non violent- just

disrespectful of others, some are. I have been spit on twice - once when I

wore my evening dress as I headed to an event and once in my coat which hadfur and offended them. I have seen them stealing at area stores.

My understanding is that to show it is a vigil and sumbolic camping - and not

sleeping quarters - they are required to move the tents on a regular basis. This has not happened once. Make them move all tents and take back a portion

of the park so residents can use it as well.

Subject: RE: Occupy DC versus other park users - I count too!

Dear Ms. DeWitt:

This responds to your e - mail to Deputy Superintendent Karen Cucurullo datedNovember 28, 2011, that asks about the National Park Service ( NPS) regulation

that authorizes temporary structures as well as a copy of the Court rulingreferred to in her e - mail to you dated November 25, 2011.

We are pleased to provide you with the information you requested. As for the

NPS regulation on temporary structures, the introductory sentence of 36 CFR7. 96( g)( 5)( iv) specifically provides that temporary structures are allowed aspart of a permitted demonstration " for the purpose of symbolizing a message or

meeting logistical needs such as first aid facilities, lost children areas or

the provision of shelter for electrical and other sensitive equipment or

displays."

As for the Court ruling, attached is a copy of Clark v. Community for CreativeNon - Violence, 468 U. S. 288 ( 1984), where the Supreme Court upheld the NPS

camping regulation, and noted that allowing the two symbolic tent cities " left

the demonstration intact, with its symbolic city, signs, and the presence of

those who were willing to take their turns in a day- and -night vigil." Please

also note that the duration of a demonstration is not limited by the NationalPark Service' s National Capital Region. This stems from the Court of Appeals

decision in Quaker Action v Morton, 516 F2d 717, 734 ( D. C. Cir. 1975), that

struck down as invalid the NPS regulatory restriction on the duration ofdemonstrations.

Since then, 24/ 7 demonstration /vigils are a rare but regular feature in someof the Federal parks in Washington DC, which generally are never closed.

Finally, the National Park Service and United States Park Police fully agreethat people have the right to protest. We also share your concern that people

using parkland should also comply with applicable laws. and regulations. In

that regard, we have taken proactive steps as well as distributed the Noticedated November 23, 2011 and found on our website at

www. nps. gov /nama /parkmgmt/ upload/ FreedomPlazaMcPhersonNotification Nov23 _2011. pdf

that reminds people of the NPS camping regulation and that temporarystructures may not be used for camping. In the event that voluntarycompliance does not occur, consistent with First Amendment jurisprudence, the

RE: Occupy DC versus other parkusers - I count too!

Than you for your response last Friday. Please send me the court ruling which

you refer to below by the statement - " the courts have ruled that temporarystructures that support First Amendment activities are allowed."

I would like that case number as soon as possible. I can find no record of

that, nor can the attorney in my building.

Thank you for your help in this matter.

Subject: RE: Occupy DC versus other park users - I count too!

Thank you for your response. I found it inaccurate in claiming to follow theletter of the law - -

I certainly appreciate the right to protest under constitutional law - however, this right does not supersede current laws requiring permits or acts

already prohibited by federal regulation etc. Federal law prohibits camping

overnight in the McPherson Square Park - period. This OCCUPY camp by federalregulations definition is not a protest - but a newly formed shanty town.

Please send me the court ruling which you refer to below by the statement - the courts have ruled that temporary structures that support First Amendment

activities are allowed." I would like that as soon as possible as we are

taking further action.

According to The Code of Federal regulations, Title 36, Parks, Forests, and

Public property - temporary structures may not be used outside designatedcamping areas ( McPherson Square does not have a federally designated campingarea) for living accommodation activities such as sleeping, or making

preparations to sleep including the laying down of beddings for the purpose ofsleep, or storing personal belongings or making fire, or ... the above listed

activities constitute camping when it reasonably appears in light of all thecircumstance, that the participants in conducting these activities are in factusing this as a living accommodation regardless of the intent of theparticipants or the nature of any other activities in which they may also beengaging.

They can certainly protest, they can get a permit and march or picket - but

they cannot camp in a federal park that is not specially designated forcamping.

security of park resources as well as persons who use the common space.

Since the beginning of the activities in McPherson Square and Freedom Plaza, the National Park Service has provided additional trash receptacles and hasemptied them at least three times each day. Rodent traps have been placed in

the parks, and those who are maintaining a vigil within the park have beenrequested to clear their trash and debris at the conclusion of each day' sevents. Portable toilet facilities have been placed within the park at theNPS' s request and at the organizer' s expense. Please contact the National

Mall and Memorial Parks if there are additional concerns that have not beenaddressed at 202 - 245 - 4661.

Just spent 50 minutes being transferred from one national park department tothe other - no one taking responsibility for this mess you all have created.

I have been a resident of DC for three years. In that time I have paid my fairshare of federal and DC taxes, donated to charities and supported several

volunteer efforts. I live across from McPherson Square Park and almost every

Saturday took my book into the book and read. Almost every night I would feedthe ducks with bread I purchased at CVS. I fed the squirrels with the nuts

Peapod delivered to my door. I am a single mom - my husband passed away sixyears ago - and I work very hard to pay for two children in college and keep aroof over my head. Do you have any idea how hard that is to do? I am not some

spoiled trust fund baby.

Now the ducks are gone, the squirrels are gone and my park bench no longeravailable thanks to by Occupy DC. The grass is ruined, the trash is horrendous

and the rat population has at least tripled. At night I get to listen to their

parties, I see under age minors camping there without adult supervision. I get

to hear sex, see public urination and be subjected to early morning drums whenI have my one day off - Saturday. Even worse is the knowledge that my tax

dollars support this irresponsible behavior by the city and federal parkservice and that you provide police protection to them as they march and as

they disturb my peace, my travel to and from work.

Sounds to me like you don' t recognize who votes for you - and who butters your

bread with their labor. It isn' t Occupy DC - it isn' t the new generation of

class warfare you are propping up - it is me. I am disgusted. I am angry andwant this to end. Yesterday I read that the Occupy DC residents at McPhersonSquare expect to stay into next year. I sincerely hope this is not the case. They need to go home and have someone else support them if they are notwilling to work. I have no desire to pay for this via my tax dollars you takefrom me in so many ways. They do not have a permit and it is unlawful forthem to be there. If I tried to camp in one of these parks you would make meleave -

There are thousands of us unhappy and complaining about them - why are you not

hearing us?

This is clearly disappointing and it appears that NPS' only response to this illegal activity is toenable them and make their unlawful camping more comfortable. It also appears that NPS hasaccepted this and will continue to promote this illegal activity instead ofenforcing current laws. Ironically the warning signs posted are still being ignored- generators are running, gas containerswith flammable liquids are being stored near propane stoves -a potential grave risk to the publicsafety of the residents, workers and visitors near the area- not to mention the obvious presence ofillegal narcotics (marijuana can readily be smelled throughout the encampment).

Finally, I am sure that if these protestors attempted their encampment on the National Mall withflammable liquids, potential projectiles and illegal drugs openly being used the response by NPSwould be substantially different. Sadly when activities are adversely impacting businesses andthe rights ofworkers and residents to enjoy the park occurs out of site of the White House, Deptof Interior and NPS the response appears to be to make them more comfortable. When severe

cold weather arrives I imagine the staked pile of wood will be used for a bonfire to warm the

campers up.

I hope NPS has a " line in the mud" at McPherson that when crossed by this group they takeaction, and I hope this action is not reactive because ofa grave or injurious incident to aninnocent victim.

Good afternoon,

We have received several comments from our tenants regarding the installation of thesani jons at McPherson park for the squatters that call themselves " Occupy DC ". Ifwe

had to sum the comments up in one single word, that word would be... REALLY ? ?!?

What is the NPS reasoning and strategy behind allowing the squatters to continue thisblatant disregard for established laws that seemingly every other person has to abide by?

The business people in the immediate area of McPherson park are not impressed with

how NPS is handling this situation.

Please advise.

Occupy DC's legal team today obtained an order from a federal judge prohibiting the Park Police fromconducting a surprise eviction of McPherson Square.

The order came in the wake of Sunday's police actions at the occupation of McPherson Square that led tothirty -one arrests, the barricading of a third of the park and the demolition of a structure erected for publicmeetings and other activities. Immediately after the demolition, Park Police stated they might remove tentswithin the barricaded area and refused to allow protesters to reenter. After Occupy DC's legal team movedtowards filing for an injunction, police removed the barricades, left tents intact and reopened the entirety ofMcPherson Square.

During today's half -hour hearing, the government stated that it had made no decision as to whether or notit intended to use anti - camping laws against the occupation. The National Park Service has previouslystated that participants in the occupation "...are allowed to have a 24 -hour vigil and they are allowed tohave structures to go along with it."


1) The Government will provide 24 -hour notice to the Court and Plaintiffs counsel if it intends to

enforce its regulations prohibiting camping or sleeping in McPherson Square; 2) Absent suchnotice or exigent circumstances, the Government will not restrict Plaintiffs access to the Square

or his camping or sleeping in the Square.

FYI - After two phone conversations with Laura, we will NOT be removing the unoccupied tents tonight. We will continue to hold the area until it's safe to allow people back in, and we in the USPP will pick upthe conversation and explore options tomorrow. I believe we're still scheduled to brief the Director and

others about Occupy DC tomorrow at 4:30, aren't we? ( It didn' t show up on yours or the Director'scalendar for tomorrow.).

Thanks for your time today / tonight. I' ll be heading home within the hour (ideally).

Peggy,

Could you keep us up to speed on what Park Police will be telling the mediathis afternoon? From Laura' s report, it sounds like this is an enforcement

action in response to the construction of a structure that is in clearviolation of Park Service policies.

Is that accurate? Also, is it accurate that NPS and PP enforcement actions

are not currently aimed at clearing the entire park, but simply responding tothe structure?

We' re getting some interest from WH comms.

Thanks,

Matt

Don't know if you have heard the following, but if it does materialize, what are USPP' s plans to deal withthe influx?

Occupy Richmond ( ORV) approximately 15 people departing with final destination of ODC McPherson this weekwill make several stops to increase numbers, one stop is Fredricksburg, Va for rally then anotherstop in Alexandria, Vatotal estimated numbers will be 100 -150 based upon projections

estimated arrival at ODC McPherson Tuesday Nov 22

Occupy NYapproximately 150 -200 are currently enroute to ODC McPhersonstop may be made in OMD Baltimoreestimated arrival at ODC McPherson Tuesday Nov 22

Based on projected numbers, this will increase size of McPherson to a total of 400 -500 on Tuesday Nov22, actions unknown at this time. Initial assessment maybe a convergence of some sort.

If the Park Service develops a clear set of guidelines as well as dramatically increases their ability toenforce them we might be able to "live" with them especially if the groups could be consolidated into asingle place at Freedom Plaza. They are destroying McPherson.

But day by day the encampments seem to slowly grow, in large part with the addition of homelessindividuals. Today someone driving a Mercedes station wagon with a Maryland license was dropping off

In the short run we are hoping that NPS can effectuate a containment strategy.

Chris -

Today we meet with Robert Vogel, Superintendent of National Mall and Memorial Parks and a few of hisstaff to discuss the issues at Freedom Plaza and McPherson Square. We discussed four main topics:

SuperintendentVogel indicated he had a meeting this afternoon with the Director, NPS solicitors and USPP to discussthese encampments and express our concerns and that he would follow up with us. He agreed that NPScould not establish or permit a precedent with these types of encampments (although we all agreed andrealized that the parks maybe a protected platform for those to use for First Amendment activities) andthat NPS had to come up with enforcement strategies to deal with the illegal activities -but of course didnot mention specific enforcement activities.

We also discussed several examples of good usage requests that were denied by NPS (summer concertsin the park, limited food vending, beautification applications and green space use) that would enhance theurban park experience and usage here in DC that would emulate several other best practices and usagesnot only here in the US but internationally. We also discussed what appeared to be the ease of suchactivity which, over extended time, has caused harm and damage to our natural resources without any

Finally, we requested that if NPS was not going to enforce the laws prohibiting camping, etc that they re-locate the encampments to the National Mall (of course they did not agree with that recommendation) orat least remove the non - permitted activity at McPherson and relocate them to Freedom Plaza, so thatcapital repairs can be made to green space before winter at McPherson.

Chris,

If the Park Service develops a clear set of guidelines as well as dramatically increases their ability toenforce them we might be able to "live" with them especially if the groups could be consolidated into asingle place at Freedom Plaza. They are destroying McPherson.

But day by day the encampments seem to slowly grow, in large part with the addition of homelessindividuals. Today someone driving a Mercedes station wagon with a Maryland license was dropping offmats, rugs, and other contributions to McPherson which now seems to have a full fledged kitchen in themaking.

In the short run we are hoping that NPS can effectuate a containment strategy.

Chris -

Today we meet with Robert Vogel, Superintendent of National Mall and Memorial Parks and a few of hisstaff to discuss the issues at Freedom Plaza and McPherson Square. We discussed four main topics:

1. Laws and policies — apparent current laws and policies have been violated in these parksregarding camping, structures, cooking (flammable materials to include propane) and generators.Further that prohibiting overnight camping by NPS did not violate freedom of speech or assemblySupreme Court case Clark v Community for Creative Nonviolence, 468 U.S. 288 (1984).2. Requirements of park users - requirements of posting of bonds, maintaining public order and

cleanliness of park, prohibition of harming of park land (36 CFR Ch. I § 7.96).3. Enforcement and protection- obligation of NPS to not only protect the park resources but alsopeople who use the park; concern with public health and safety issues

a. USPP services and uniformed presence to ensure all who use the park are safe and toensure open communication and intelligence with MPD

b. Child protective services to deal with small children living in these encampments in theseunsanitary conditions;

C. Maintenance services to deal with the trash and debris;d.

Capital Repairs to be set aside when parks are vacated to restore to pre- encampmentconditions;

4. Coordination and communication - better coordination to stakeholders (DBID etc)

It was apparent that the Superintendent shared our concerns with the current conditions of the two parksand their current usage and deterioration.

I have been a resident of DC for three years. In that time I have paid my fair share of taxes, donatedto charities and supported several volunteer efforts. I live across from McPherson Square Park andalmost every Saturday took my book into the book and read. Almost every night I would feed theducks with bread I purchased at CVS. I fed the squirrels with the nuts Peapod delivered to my door.I am a single mom — my husband passed away six years ago - and I work very hard to pay for twochildren in college and keep a roof over my head. Do you have any idea how hard that is to do? Iam not some spoiled trust fund baby.

Now the ducks are gone, the squirrels are gone and my park bench no longer available thanks to byOccupy DC. The grass is ruined, the trash is horrendous and the rat population has at least tripled.At night I get to listen to their parties, I see under age minors camping there without adultsupervision. I get to hear sex, see public urination and be subjected to early morning drums when Ihave my one day off — Saturday. Even worse is the knowledge that my tax dollars support thisirresponsible behavior by the city and that you provide police protection to them as they march andas they disturb my peace, my travel to and from work.

Sounds to me like you don't recognize who votes for you — and who butters your bread with theirlabor. It isn't Occupy DC — it isn't the new generation of class warfare you are propping up - it isme. I am disgusted. I am angry and want this to end. Yesterday I read that the Occupy Dc residentsat McPherson Square expect to stay into next year. I sincerely hope this is not the case. They need togo home and have someone else support them if they are not willing to work. I have no desire topay for this via my tax dollars you take from me in so many ways.

There are thousands of us unhappy and complaining about them — why are you not hearing us?

Laura — I wanted to bring to your attention the growing concerns of members of the DC business community about theprotesters camping out in downtown DC. Certainly we all support the protestors' rights to exercise their FirstAmendment Rights but I'm hearing increasingly loud feedback from our businesses and residents that the National ParkService is not providing the necessary resources to ensure the safety and sanitation of the protestors as well as DCresidents and visitors.

I am attaching and pasting below an example of the feedback I am hearing — and that you may be hearing directly too. I

have heard stories about propane tanks and uncollected garbage. And there is a sense that Park Police is not monitoringthe situation as closely as they should. Also, below you will find a link to photos that vividly illustrate some of theconcerns.

We would be so appreciative if you can alert NPS to these concerns and ask them to step up the resources they aredevoting to this situation — and if they need additional resources we ask that you support those requests.

Please let me know if you have any questions. And thanks again.

Good evening. I am the onsite Property Manager at 1500 K Street and have a front row seat to McPherson Park. Myteam and many of our tenants have a safety concern and we are hopeful that you can assist.

Beyond the trash issue, odor issue and sanitary conditions being generated by the Occupy DC participants at theMcPherson park illegal camp site, we request that your agency please check on the safety and wellbeing of the 2 smallchildren living at the park with their "parents ", alongside many rats. It would be a horrific story to have to read about achild falling ill to a dangerous rat bite which is highly probably in this type of situation and at this specific location. Whiletoday (10/13/11) was the first day this week that no rats were seen in daylight hours, nightfall brings is a very differentstory and dangerous situation.

Any assistance you can provide would be helpful and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Superintendent VogelPlease see attached the photos taken today of conditions at McPherson. Again troubling is the flammable material beingstored on site (notice close proximity of one of the generators to the sidewalk) and the cooking. Also disturbing is therecent stacking of lumber and wood for either use for a bonfire or weapons against law enforcement. The trash continuesto pile up within the park and then are removed by the occupants and dumped on the public sidewalks. Recent new ratinfestation borrowing has been observed in nearby tree box spaces. As the email below indicates the unhealthy andunsanitary conditions continue as food is dumped as compost, dogs run free throughout the park and children (observedin one of the photos) also play where they go to the bathroom.

We look forward to a more proactive response — to include increased trash pick ups and enforcement of these severepublic safety issues.

Dave,

As we had discussed earlier, Kenny and I visited the Occupy DC site today. We noted that the site had expanded sinceMonday, roughly totaling 125 -150 people with nearly 40 tents. The park grounds themselves look to be in poor to direcondition due to all of the activity. Also, the demonstration has two working generators which they seem to be rotatingout. They also have a storage tent which looks like a quasi - pantry for demonstrators to receive rations. Additionally, thesmell was quite putrid when we walked through the encampment which most likely stems from the lack of sanitaryconditions and the presence of dogs. Lastly, we noted around 15 or so trash bags stacked on the corner of K and 15 St.1 have also attached photos for your viewing.

Let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thanks!
