Abstract
For many years petitioner John Sturgeon used a small hovercraft to hunt moose in Alaska. One day, he was told by National Park Service (NPS) officials that hovercrafts are not allowed inside the National Park System. Sturgeon's suit challenging the NPS hovercraft restriction is now before the Court a second time. This time, like the first time, the issue is whether the NPS's power to regulate boating in the National Park System is restricted in Alaska by Section 103(c) of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act.
