WASHINGTON, June 20 (UPI) -- The National Park Service banned drones from all 401 U.S. parks and memorials Friday.
Visitors to several parks, including Yosemite in California and Zion in southern Utah were already barred from using the unmanned remotely controlled aircraft. Jonathan Jarvis, the park service director, extended the ban to the entire system, 84 million acres, in an executive order to superintendents.
