The tower can tell the planes where they should, or shouldn't be. The only missing component is a mandatory restriction of airspace over portions of GTNP and the JSWA, to provide the tower the authority to tell the planes where to be. Currently, there are no mandatory restrictions like this. Airport development proponents will say that much of this isn't possible because it's the sole jurisdiction of the FAA, it's not the way FAA does things, or that these changes will take congressional action. Anything is possible, as it should be, when dealing with the future of one of America's crown jewel national parks.
Unique environments call for unique ideas.
Although grazing is still permitted on Forest Service lands, the use of Park Service lands as grazing allotments was restricted when these lands were incorporated into Grand Teton National Park. At that time, provisions were made to gradually phase out grazing on park lands to allow the area to return to a more natural state. The Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance is dedicated to the preservation of open space on private lands in Teton County. However, the organization maintains the position that the protection of open space should not compromise the National Park Service's legal obligation to phase out grazing within its boundaries. Recently, conflicts between wildlife and livestock have been resolved in favor of cattle, at the expense of grizzly bears, wolves and bison.
