Financial Statement Notes

Part II, Line 5:

KELT'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 9:

It is the policy of KELT to record the donation or acquisition of an easement at its fair market value, in accordance with the most recent appraisal if available, as an income and expense item on KELTs financial statements. No amount is capitalized for the purchase of the easement as it is not a fee estate.

Part X, Line 2:

Schedule D Part X Line 2: Management of KELT believes it has no material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly it will not recognize any liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0KELT'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.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1It is the policy of KELT to record the donation or acquisition of an easement at its fair market value, in accordance with the most recent appraisal if available, as an income and expense item on KELTs financial statements. No amount is capitalized for the purchase of the easement as it is not a fee estate.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Schedule D Part X Line 2: Management of KELT believes it has no material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly it will not recognize any liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
