“Annual site visit with detailed report including pictures.”

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“PART II, LINE 5KELT'S COMMITMENT TO PROTECT CONSERVATION EASEMENTS CONSISTS OF A WRITTEN POLICY WHICH SPECIFIES WHO WILL MONITOR EACH EASEMENT, TRAINING FOR MONITORS AND MONITORING FORMS TO BE FILLED OUT ON EACH TRIP. REQUIRED REPORTING INCLUDES VIOLATIONS OF THE EASEMENT, A NARRATIVE OF THE TRIP, A MAP OF THE ROUTE TAKEN, PHOTOS OF THE BASELINE CONDITION, LAND USE, NATURAL CATASTROPHIC EVENTS, AND INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES OR REPAIRS NEEDED. PART II, LINE 9It is the policy of KELT to not recognize any amount in the financial statements for the donation of an easement as it has no economic value. The costs of purchased easements are reflected as an expense. No amount is capitalized for the acquisition of an easements as it is not a fee simple property.SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2MANAGEMENT OF KELT BELIEVES IT HAS NO MATERIAL UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS AND, ACCORDINGLY IT WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ANY LIABILITY FOR UNRECOGNIZED TAX BENEFITS.”

IRS990/Desc0The Restoration and General Programs focus on community science including water testing, counting fish, and monitoring birds, rockweed, and green crabs. In addition, this area includes working with partners on large scale projects that repair ecological obstructions, such as damaged fish ladders and undersized roadway culverts, to benefit surrounding natural habitats in local communities. General programs focus on food secutity issues working with partners locally and regionally to strategize and address community needs through effective efforts such as KELT's LOCAL Garden (an edible, education, raised bed garden) and the Merrymeeting Food Council.
