The forest was created by decree of the governor of Acre on 9 March 2004.

People and economy
As of April 2012 there were 422 families in the Rio Gregório Forest Complex, which covered 480,000 hectares (1,200,000 acres) in total.
The state's Department of Industry, Trade and Sustainable Services (SEDENS) had a number of plans for the complex.
These included providing two new trucks to support the communities, making football fields in each community, providing coordinators to arrange meetings, resuming production of tree seedlings and providing assistance with family farming, small livestock and fish farming.
Each family would get a concession of 100 hectares (250 acres) of which 20% could be cleared and the remainder used in a sustainable way.
Wood processing factories were to be built in Cruzeiro do Sul and Tarauacá.
