Answer:

Specifically, the Act declares that the National Park Service has a dual mission, both to conserve park resources and provide for their use and enjoyment

Step-by-step explanation:

It was established in 1916 by an act of the U.S. Congress that was signed into law by U.S. Pres. Woodrow Wilson. The law stipulated that the new service was to “conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and… leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.”

I hope this helps and have a wonderful day!
