Top stories of 2001 Continued from Pagt 1 ' The mill now employs about 148 people, whereas be-' fore there were 210 workers. To help some of the laid-off workers, the Tribal Council made available $250,000 for a community improvement pro gram. ; 1 Work funded through this program involved painting the Simnasho Longhouse, the wa ter plant, the floor of the gym at the Community Wellness Center, among other projects. WSFPI is facing ; other changes in the future. In 2001, the Tribal Council set the an nual allowable cut for the cur rent year at 37.6 million board feet iof timber. This is a fairly significant reduction from the 52 million board feet of 2001. The WSFPI mill in one year processes 48 million board feet of timber, so the 37.6 million board feet allowable-cut figure means WSFPI may have to look off the reservation for logs. The 2002 allowable-cut figure is reasonable for long term forestry management, of ficials at Natural Resources say. In the past, they say, the allow able cut was well above the sus tainable level. People at WSFPI now face the challenge of living with the lower cut level. 3. Changes in leadership During 2001, there were many changes in leadership. During the course of the year, two new members - Ron Suppah and Carol Wcwa -joined the Tribal Council. Suppah was elected in the Council election of April 2001. Wewa joined the Council after the position held by Joe Moses came open, after Moses was sworn in as Chief of the Seekseequa District. : Wewa had come in third in the April election, so she was next in line to fill the vacancy. ' The swearing in of Moses as Paiute Chief was not without controversy. Some Paiute tribal members said that Moses had not as sumed the chieftainship posi tion through the accustomed manner. Moses and his supporters disagreed, saying that the late Chief Vernon Henry had named Moses sub-chief. This means, Moses said, that he be came chief with the passing ,of . the late Chief Henry, who died in a car accident in July. People critical of Moses' ac tion say that the issue of suc cession to the chieftainship will be re-visited during 2002. Happy birthday, and other wishes... Happy Birthday wishes go .
