Park Issues


Great Smoky Mountains National Park is currently under attack from many different threats. Hemlock woolly adelgid, southern pine beetle, mimosa trees, chestnut blight, kudzu, and the European wild boar are some of the non-native infestations that are invading the park. Pollution from coal-powered plants is taking its toll on the park's air quality as well. Through management and monitoring, the National Park Service is exercising active control measures against the "exotics" and using collected data to help inform legislators and promote initiatives to improve air quality.
