Communities Before Air Tourism Act

This bill changes federal law on voluntary agreements that govern commercial air tour flights over national parks. Under current law, these agreements must address effects on park resources, visitor experiences, and the air traffic control system. The bill would add the well-being of communities that air tour aircraft fly over to the list of things these agreements must address. It would also require that communities whose lands are, or may be, flown over be included in the process alongside Indian tribes.
