The National Park Service (NPS) is preparing an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the restoration of parkland features adjacent to the Intelligence Community Campus-Bethesda (ICC-B), which is owned by the Office of Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). The project area is located in Bethesda, MD on federal land adjacent to the west of the ICC-B campus, between the ICC-B campus and the Potomac River. Two NPS units, the George Washington Memorial Parkway and the Chesapeake & Ohio (C&O) Canal National Historical Park administer the project area. The project involves restoring two eroded natural stream channels and one non-natural erosion channel that are downstream of the ICC-B and resolving sedimentation load issues at the C&O Canal. The proposed project is part of an agreement between ODNI and NPS to address pre-existing erosion and sedimentation concerns caused by stormwater runoff from prior development on the ICC-B site.
