Our goals for achieving natural quiet in the Grand Canyon
The Grand Canyon Trust will continue to work on natural quite issues to ensure that...
- The NPS selects a preferred alternative that substantially restores natural quiet to the Grand Canyon.
- The FAA adopts regulations to implement that alternative.
- The NPS continues to monitor aircraft noise over the Grand Canyon.
We’ve already accomplished much.
The Trust has participated with the National Parks and Conservation Association, Sierra Club, and other “quiet canyon” advocates in reviewing and commenting on proposed plans and new regulations to restore “natural quiet” to the Grand Canyon. Our major accomplishments have included:
- Helping pass the 1987 National Parks Overflights Act.
- Initiating a series of legal actions to enforce the law.
Your donations and membership dues make our work in Grand Canyon possible.
