We wanted to remind everyone that the Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Shark Valley Site Plan is available for review and comment through March 11 at parkplanning.nps.gov/sharkvalley.

Learn more and submit comments directly on the project website.

The Park proposes to enhance visitor experience, safety and park operations at Shark Valley by providing on-site overflow parking, installing shade structures along the Shark Valley Tram Road, and reducing flooding at the Entrance Road, Tram Road and the Administration Complex.

The Environmental Assessment evaluates two action alternatives, describes the environment that would be affected by the alternatives, and assesses the environmental consequences of implementing the alternatives.

Under the no-action alternative, the NPS would maintain the existing conditions at Shark Valley.

Comments must be posted through the project website for consideration in the planning process.

Although we will read them, please know that comments submitted through social media will not be considered as part of the project review.
