The sides of the canyon would always be crumbling into it, but as that would mean it was getting wider, it wouldn't fill up, just get more level.

But presumably there's a stream/river at the bottom which caused the canyon in the first place and this is likely to continue the erosion.

What action is necessary to protect the grand canyon?

The Grand Canyon is large, and seemingly impervious to the efforts of humans, but nevertheless it needs protection. Grand Canyon national park is set up to ensure that the canyon is preserved in a mostly natural state, while allowing as many people as is practical the best access possible to enjoy the canyon. The wildlife and plant life within the canyon needs to be protected, from man-made disasters, and from invasive species. The canyon itself was formed through erosion, so obviously, it is possible for human activity to cause more or less erosion.

How do river valleys form?

A river creates a canyon through erosion. The faster the water is moving the faster the canyon is going to be formed. The water rushes on the bottom and moves rocks as it goes along and the rocks scrape on other rocks and loosen up the soil and other rocks so it carves out a canyon.
