The National Park Service was created in the Organic Act of 1916. The new agency's mission as managers of national parks and monuments was clearly stated: "....to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations."
