In the October 7, 2002, issue of the Federal Register Vol. 67, No. 194, at page 62513, the Northwest Mountain Region, Airports Division, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), announced it intends to prepare Draft and Final Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) for the construction of a replacement airport at St. George, Utah. 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)".
