"Obama To Declare Five National Monuments Monday, Sources Say"

"President Obama will designate five national monuments Monday including one commemorating Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad in Maryland, according to several environmental groups."



"The other four are the First State National Monument in Delaware and Pennsylvania;  New Mexico's Rio Grande del Norte National Monument; San Juan Islands National Monument in Washington state; and Charles Young Buffalo Soldiers National Monument in Ohio.

The Dayton Daily News first reported the designations late Thursday night; sources familiar with Obama plans asked not to be identified because the announcement was not yet public."
