How would the rivers be designated Wild and Scenic?

In order to be designated, the Study Committee must show that there are outstandingly remarkable values which are of regional, national, or state-wide significance.  The Study Committee has determined that the Missisquoi and Trout Rivers have these values.  The Study Committee must also show community support for designation.  This will be accomplished through meetings and discussion with community members, and ultimately by a vote at town meeting in each of the ten towns and villages.  If both of these are demonstrated, then legislation is brought to Congress, and if passed signed into law by the President.
