Attached to the Nacional Financiera, a Mexican Government development agency, his main activities had been concerned with the development of the forest resources of the State of Michoacán. He had drafted plans for the establishment of integrated forest industries; including a pulp and newsprint plant, carried out a detailed forest inventory and prepared a forest management plan. The project was about to enter the construction stage.
