The author details the deployment of three acoustical monitoring
systems in April 2009 in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument
(ORPI). The purpose of this monitoring effort was to characterize
existing sound levels and estimate natural ambient sound levels in
these areas, as well as identify audible sound sources prior to the
construction of several Department of Homeland Security Rapid
Deployment Towers (RDT) that will be located on or adjacent to
ORPI. Acoustical monitoring provides a scientific basis for
assessing the current status of acoustic resources, identifying
trends in resource conditions, quantifying impacts from other
actions, assessing consistency with park management objectives and
standards, and informing management decisions regarding desired
future conditions.
