Action Alert: Oppose expansion of Grand Canyon Airport
SPECIAL EVENT: SIERRA CLUB PUBLIC PROGRAM Grand Canyon Noise Park Monday, May 14, 7 - 8:30 PM
Filmmaker Jim McCarthy will present his film "Grand Canyon Noise Park" and lead a discussion of air-tour noise issues at a public event sponsored by the Yavapai Group of the Sierra Club on Monday evening, at 7 PM in Prescott. Congress designated the Grand Canyon National Park as a protected natural resource, including natural quiet, for all citizens. While some enjoy aircraft rides in the park, many others feel that it prevents them from having a natural and reflective experience. A published author, McCarthy is a retired aerospace engineer who chairs the Flagstaff Planning and Zoning Commission, and is a candidate for City Council. He earned a Master of Environmental Planning degree from ASU with a thesis on the effects of aircraft noise on Grand Canyon National Park. Location: Yavapai Title Conference Room, 1235 East Gurley Street, Prescott, AZ. (Enter at back of building. Map
