In 2009, the Natural Sounds Program (NSP) received a request to collect baseline acoustical data at Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site (SAND). During the months of July and August, one acoustic monitoring system was deployed for 45 days. The baseline data collected during this period will help park managers, planners, and tribal representatives develop desired conditions for soundscapes in the park’s first general management plan (GMP). Sand Creek Massacre National Historic site is a unique case in terms of soundscape monitoring because the park was opened to the public in 2007. This is the first time the NSP has collected data at a new park.
