BILLING CODE 4910–13–P 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Aviation Administration 

Supplemental Notice of Intent To 

Prepare an Environmental Assessment 

and Request for Public Scoping 

Comments for the Air Tour 

Management Plan Program at Death 

Valley National Park 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA). 

ACTION: Supplemental notice of intent to 

prepare an Environmental Assessment 

and to request Public Scoping 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The FAA, with National Park 

Service (NPS) as a cooperating agency, 

has initiated development of an Air 

Tour Management Plan (ATMP) for 

Death Valley National Park (DEVA), 

pursuant to the National Parks Air Tour 

Management Act of 2000 (Pub. L. 106– 

181) and its implementing regulations 

(14 CFR Part 136, Subpart B, National 

Parks Air Tour Management). The 

objective of the ATMP is to develop 

acceptable and effective measures to 

mitigate or prevent the significant 

adverse impacts, if any, of commercial 

air tour operations upon the natural 

resources, cultural resources, and visitor 

experiences of a national park unit and 

any tribal lands within or abutting the 

park. It should be noted that the ATMP 

has no authorization over other non-airtour operations such as military and 

general aviation operations. In 

compliance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) and FAA Order 1050.1E, an 

Environmental Assessment is being 

prepared. This supplemental notice of 

intent, revises the Federal Register 

notice published on January 19, 2010 

(Vol. 75, No. 11, 2922–2923) which had 

an incorrect link to the FAA web site 

containing the meeting minutes for the 

kickoff meeting and the public scoping 

document mentioned below. This 

supplemental notice also extends the 

date by which scoping comments must 

be submitted (see DATES). 

The ATMP will be prepared using an 

Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) 

process, as authorized under 49 U.S.C. 

106. The purpose of using the ARC 

process is to provide early advice, 

information, and recommendations from 

interested stakeholders to the FAA and 

NPS, regarding environmental and other 

issues to consider in the development of 

an ATMP. The DEVA ARC is composed 

of various representatives including air 

tour operators, federal, local and 

regional agencies, environmental 

organizations, local businesses, and the 

Timbisha Shoshone tribe. It is chaired 

by the Superintendent of Death Valley 

National Park. 

In June 2009, the ARC held a two-day 

kickoff meeting at DEVA; minutes may 

be found at: http://www.faa.gov/about/

office_org/headquarters_offices/arc/

programs/air_tour_management_plan/

park_specific_plans/Death_Valley.cfm 

The purpose of the kickoff meeting 

was for stakeholders to have the 

opportunity to provide advice, 

information, and recommendations to 

the FAA and NPS regarding 

environmental and other issues to 

consider in the development of an 

ATMP. Materials presented at the 

meeting included information on: park 

resources; the acoustical environment at 

DEVA; military operations over DEVA 

and the surrounding areas; current and 

historical air tour operations; and, a 

map of current air tour flight paths. 

Comments were received from members 

of the ARC regarding sensitive park 

resources, tribal concerns, changes in 

tourism patterns, and air tour 

operations. After a generalized map of 

current air tour flight paths was 

presented, ARC members made 

suggestions regarding options for an air 

tour flight track that would consolidate 

flight paths and modify elevations and 

flight locations. ARC members’ 

recommendations attempted to address 

the concerns raised at the meeting. Refer 

to the Public Scoping Document 

(mentioned below) to see how these 

suggestions are incorporated into an air 

tour route. 

Based on input received at the 

meeting, the FAA and NPS have 

decided to proceed with ATMP 

development at DEVA via the ARC 

process. The FAA is now inviting the 

public, agencies, and other interested 

parties to provide comments, 

suggestions, and input on the scope of 

issues and the identification of 

significant issues regarding commercial 

air tours and their potential impacts on 

natural, cultural, and historical 

resources. Input is also welcome on 

other areas to be addressed in the 

environmental process, such as past, 

present, and future actions (which, 

when considered with ATMP 

alternatives, may result in potentially 

significant cumulative impacts), and 

potential ATMP alternatives. 

DATES: By this notice, the FAA is 

requesting comments on the scope of 

the environmental assessment for the 

ATMP at Death Valley National Park. 

Comments must be submitted by March 

8, 2010.
