US Park Police Lease Mobile Surveillance Cameras for DC Landmarks

The US Park Police have secured a $343,000 lease for mobile surveillance cameras from LiveView Technologies, a firm that also supplies Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This acquisition, managed by the Department of the Interior, is intended to bolster security measures around Washington D.C.'s prominent landmarks.

The contract, which extends through February, will provide an undisclosed number of camera trailers. The move highlights a growing trend of utilizing advanced surveillance technology to monitor public spaces, particularly in response to recent incidents of vandalism affecting sites like the reflecting pool.
