Snowflake Power LLC

signed in February 2011 isworking to restore 2.4 million acres ofthe Southwest’s National Foreststhrough accelerated, large-scale smalltimber management and the re-introduction of industry into the forests.

and thehave been leaders in the movement,which includes environmentalists,industry groups and scientists. 4FRI willalso create opportunity in the Apache-Sitgreaves Forest for sustainable forestindustries and environmentally-mindedharvesting operations. An RFP from theU.S. Forest Service is now in progress forthe project’s first 300,000 acres. It willbe the largest restoration contract everawarded by the Forest Service.

An $85 million 25MW biomass electricalgeneration plant was built nearSnowflake in 2006 and sold to

in 2010. The plantis fueled by woody waste from theWhite Mountain Stewardship and,potentially, the Four Forests Initiative,and by waste recycled material from theCatalyst paper mill.

GreenFire Energy is refining CO2-basedgeothermal energy technology nearSpringerville. The company is working tobecome the first company in the worldto produce electric power atcommercial scale, using geothermallyheated CO2.
