      The NYCEDC introduced measures in its request for proposals (RFP) for a new helicopter tour operator to mitigate community impacts.

      • It mandated a 30% reduction in tour hours for the new operator.
      • The NYCEDC has control over concession agreements and heliport management.
      • These actions are separate from the Federal Aviation Administration's regulation of airspace.
