SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The National Parks Air Tour Management Act of 2000 (NPATMA),
enacted on April 5, 2000, as Public Law 106-181, required the
establishment of the NPOAG within one year after its enactment. The Act
requires that the NPOAG be a balanced group of representatives of
general aviation, commercial air tour operations, environmental
concerns, and Native American tribes. The Administrator of the FAA and
the Director of NPS (or their designees) serve as ex officio members of
the group. Representatives of the Administrator and Director serve
alternating 1-year terms as chairperson of the advisory group.
The duties of the NPOAG include providing advice, information, and
recommendations to the FAA Administrator and the NPS Director on;
implementation of Public Law 106-181; quiet aircraft technology; other
measures that might accommodate interests to visitors of national
parks; and at the request of the Administrator and the Director, on
safety, environmental, and other issues related to commercial air tour
operations over national parks or tribal lands.
