Background
The National Parks Air Tour
Management Act of 2000 (the Act) was
enacted on April 5, 2000, as Public Law
106–181. The Act required the

group. Representatives of the
Administrator and Director serve
alternating 1-year terms as chairman of
the advisory group.
In accordance with the Act, the

information, and recommendations to
the Administrator and the Director(1) On the implementation of this title
[the Act] and the amendments made by
this title;
(2) On commonly accepted quiet
aircraft technology for use in

air tour management plan;
(3) On other measures that might be
taken to accommodate the interests of
visitors to national parks; and

of installed units of the ET-Plus. As a
result, FHWA is undertaking a number

FHWA is seeking technical information
and data to assist in this work.
