“Management has evaluated the tax positions of the conservancy and does not believe that any uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits exist for the year ended december 31, 2020. The conservancy's policy is to report accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits, when applicable as interest expens and to report penalties as other expense. The conservancy is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.”
