The ESDs will become a component in a comprehensive natural resources management plan that is scheduled for this range unit.

The project will utilize the community farmers and ranchers to create economic opportunities and increase fresh local food access for the White Mountain Apache reservation community while leveraging resources at Ndee Bikiyaa Market.
