Will you please provide me the complete list of holidays of District of Columbia for 2015 and 2016? Tell me the dates on which local government offices are closed and public services do not operate? If possible provide me the list of holidays in a pdf file?

Hi I would like to know the holidays which have been officially declared by the Department of Human Resources for the DC government?
