While Navajo Mine has been providing coal to chapters local to the mine, in 2016 NTEC started working to expand the program to include more Navajo chapters. In 2017 when Kayenta Mine closed in Arizona, NTEC opened CHRP to all Navajo Nation chapters and Hopi villages.
Chapter members can receive a ticket from their local chapter where the person or family can come to Navajo Mine to have coal loaded into their vehicle or trailer. Or, it can be delivered to chapters and villages to reach people who live far away from Navajo Mine.
For the past few years, Navajo Mine has delivered and loaded more than 10,000 tons of coal each year and has served thousands of families. Our goal is to Keep the Hogan Warm.
