In 2008, an agreement was reached between DCR and The Trustees of Reservations to "work jointly to increase stewardship of the property".[3] However, the 2017 DCR Resource Management Plan for Wilson Mountain called for DCR and The Trustees "to clarify status of the 2008 Memorandum of Agreement and, if appropriate, develop a work plan for future stewardship activities."
