Background
In the October 7, 2002, issue of the Federal Register Vol. 67, No.

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), announced it intends to prepare
Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) for the

following quote was included in that notice: ``the FAA must evaluate
the cumulative impact of noise pollution on the Park as a result of
construction of the proposed replacement airport in light of air
traffic near and over the Park, from whatever airport, air tours near
or in the Park, and the acoustical data collected by the NPS in the
Park in 1995 and 1998 mentioned in comments on the draft Environmental
Assessment (EA)''. The FAA wishes to clarify that the referenced
``Park'' is Zion National Park.
In order to insure that all significant issues related to the
proposed action are identified and given consideration, letters
containing environmental concerns must be received by Dennis Ossenkop,
