SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The National Parks Air Tour

The advisory group is comprised of 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 chairman of 

the advisory group. 

In accordance with the Act, the 

advisory group provides ‘‘advice,

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 

commercial air tour operations over a 

national park or tribal lands, which will 

receive preferential treatment in a given 

air tour management plan; 

(3) On other measures that might be 

taken to accommodate the interests of 

visitors to national parks; and 

(4) At the request of the Administrator 

and the Director, safety, environmental, 

and other issues related to commercial 

air tour operations over a national park 

or tribal lands.’’ 

Membership 

The current NPOAG ARC is made up 

of one member representing general 

aviation, three members representing 

the commercial air tour industry, four 

members representing environmental 

concerns, and two members 

representing Native American interests. 

Current members of the NPOAG ARC 

are as follows: Randy Kenagy 

representing general aviation; Alan 

Stephen, Elling Halvorson, and Matthew 

Zuccaro representing commercial air 

tour operations; Chip Dennerlein, Greg 

Miller, Mark Peterson, and Don Barger

Deertrack representing Native American 

tribes.
