DaIecarIia Area
Considered for
U. 5. Buildings
Planners to Explore
Possible Development
Of Reservation Site
By Nelson M. Shepard

Federal planners suggested today
that the 400-acre Dalecarlia Reser-
vation in Northwest Washington
would afford a convenient area for
either permanent or emergency ex-
pansion of Government facilities in
the crowded Capital.
At the request OF the Army De-
partment, which owns the acreage
surrounding the reservoir, the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission agreed late yesterday
to explore it possibilities
The planners also recommended
adoption of the $8,421 ,790 project
proposed by Army Engineers for
a food-control program to benefit
Bladensburg and other nearby COM
munities served by the Anacostia
River.
Convenient Location Conceded.
The convenient location of the
Dalecarlia Reservation, planners
conceded, offers opportunities for
many phases of Federal construc-
ton or other uses. The reservation
provided a site for some Army
buildings during the war.
The problem of where future Fed
eral buildings should be located Is
one that has plagued the commits
sion and the Public Buildings Ad-
ninistration for years. The recent
war accentuated the problem, but
in the last two years PBA has sue
ceeded in relinquishing about $50
leased buildings.
The proposed flood control project,
1t was said, soon will come before
the Board of Engineers for Rivers
and Harbors. Public hearings will
be held then.
Because control will be exercised
over a large area of Anacostia
Park, the approval of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission will be sought.
Col. Byron E. Byrd of the United
States Engineers Office. in reporting
to ,NCPPC, said the report recon-
mends Federal appropriation OF
$4,531,200. ..-..
Contributions of $685. 100 would
come from Prince Georges County
the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission and the Maryland State
Highway Department. The scheme
calls for a $494, 400 contribution
also, from the Public Roads Ad-
ministration.
No Money From d. c.
Mai. Gen. u. S. Grant III, chair
man of NCPPC, said no money Is
sought from the District. Because
the flood control project would i'm
prove Anacostia Park outside the
District, the local government Is
not called upon to participate f1nan.
cially. 1t Would make an indirect
contribution, however. by dumping
refuse into certain areas.
The flood control plan would bene-
fit Bladensburg, Edmonston, River
dale, Hyattsville, Brentwood, Cot
tage City and Colmar Manor. The
Anacostia channel also would be
dredged to width of 30 feet and
depth OF 8 feet for the Improvement
of navigation from the foot of
Fifteenth street Sc. in Washing
ton to Bladensburg. A small boat
harbor would be provided near the
head of the channel.
Refused $3,400,0O0 requested in the
budget to start the buying of land
for slum clearance, the planning
agency nevertheless will go ahead
with its advance plans.
