Recognizing the need for a more holistic approach to forest health management and community protection, Governor Napolitano held the First Annual Conference on Forest Health. This event included dedicated individuals from all walks of life who shared a common goal of protecting our State’s forests. In April of 2003, the results of the conference were released in the Governor Forest Health and Safety Action Plan for Arizona. The action Plan established the Forest Health Advisory Council and the Governor's Forest Health Oversight Council.
