From the Paper:

"The controversy occurred at the peak of the nation's dam frenzy. It was a time where many areas of America were constructing dams to improve their water resources and those of the areas near them. Many people now believe that too many dams were built, and it had more to do with keeping up with others than any real need for a dam. "
