Pro-monument advocates were concerned about artifacts and burial sites being looted, along with potential damage from future oil and gas development in the region. They argued for a monument to provide greater policing of the area, tighter restrictions on oil and gas leasing, and a cohesive management plan to help visitors explore the region responsibly and safely. The Native American tribes pushing for the monument also wanted to have a say in how the land was managed, hoping that by creating a new co-management system, it would set a precedent for Native Americans to be part of how public lands are managed across the nation.
