Bio Fuel Faculty on an Arizona Indian Reservation

Completed a preliminary investigation that determined the most effective manner to obtain BIA (Bureau of Indian Affairs) and Tribal approval for a 10 acre bio fuel faculty on an Indian reservation. This included determining all NEPA environmental EIS requirements and special environmental studies necessary to get BIA approval for the land lease and construction of the bio fuel facility. This investigation determined what offsite improvements were required for the roadway, curb and gutter, and wet and dry utilities.

It has been our firm’s good fortune to have become acquainted with, and worked with, Terry Strom for the past several years. He has assisted us with some very difficult and tenuous discretionary approval projects in jurisdictions beyond our firm’s usual familiarity. His research and recommendations have consistently been extremely thorough and well documented, and have been invaluable in helping us to determine the best strategy and approach to securing our approvals. He is a man of complete integrity, and one we would highly recommend.
