Navajo Forestry Director Robert Billie says a new forest management plan is underway alongside the first Environmental Impact Statement.

Goals focus on resources and economic development, with potential revitalization of the Navajo Forest Products Industry depending on feasible timber volumes. Critics seek clearer forest restoration and watershed safeguards as the plan advances.
