The two Law Enforcement arms of the MD DNR (state forest and park service & natural resources police) have been merged together. If you have not had a chance to see the story i will post the two links below.

and

I don't know what this will mean for their VHF frequencies, but in the central region it sounds as if most of the law enforcement activity has been moved to the NRP High-Band frequency (151.2050) with most of the Forest Service activity remaining behind on the old SFPS Channel 3 repeater (159.4500). I was just curious to see if anyone else across the state has noticed any changes in the uses of the DNR's frequencies...anyone?
[Edit]: I just ran thru the FCC ULS and noticed that the NRP has 3 new VHF narrowband frequencies: 151.2425, 151.3175, and 159.3825. Maybe these are to expand the NRP's VHF High Band for the merger?.....
