Recruitment
Recruiting stakeholder groups to participate can be difficult; however, in order to have effective collaboration within a project as large as the Wyoming Power Company case recruitment is necessary for success.

A kitchen table discussion is a small group meeting in a neutral setting that helps to invite two-way communications among stakeholders and particularly conflicting stakeholders.

A host for the meeting will be chosen for their neutrality, which would likely be a resident of a community outside of the Fourmile Creek watershed. Therefore, a kitchen table discussion that takes into consideration and makes reasonable accommodations for stakeholder groups will be likely to produce reliable opportunities for stakeholders to raise their concerns about the on-going developments of the case. The desired outcomes of completing these kitchen table discussion is to promote collaboration among stakeholder groups as well as facilitate discussions that seek to resolve issues
