Residents near the Sixes Bridge Dam organize opposition to a 35 million project that would displace about 70 families. At Tom's Creek Church 50 residents pressed Army Corps engineers on land condemnation and costs while a separate group formed Save the Monocacy Association near Harney to oppose the dam for its impact on the valley's economy, history, and scenery.
