Summary:A town appointed citizen committee in Whitefield (Jane Chase, Chuck Vaughn, Louie Sell, Leslie McCormick, Barry Tibbetts, Scott Higgins, and Herb Hartman) met monthly to consider all options for the future of the Coopers Mills Dam and surrounding land.

As part of this process the Atlantic Salmon Federation (ASF) and the Midcoast Conservancy (MC) provided a number of experts, consultants, and engineers to help in the committees work.
