First National Forest Road Authorized for Survey in Apache Region
Washington reports the secretary of agriculture approved location survey for a 71 mile section of a National Forest road under the Federal aid act in Apache National Forest Greenlee County Arizona with an estimated cost of 342 500 to be partly funded by local bonds. The project aims to create a north south trunk line open access to timber and copper mining areas and to boost tourism and water power development while limiting government expenditure to ten percent of county timber and forest resources. Additional 29 miles would raise total cost to about 420 000 with other western projects also under consideration.
