“Conservation easements represent rights to restrict the use, access, and development of certain properties. Unrestricted support and expenses are recognized in equal amounts based upon the appraised fair value of the easements. The Organization is obligated to monitor the easements to ensure that the restrictions are maintained. The Organization monitors these easements in the normal course of its operations and the associated costs are expensed as incurred. The estimated value of easements is not included in the Statement of Finacial Position because the easements do not represent a future economic benefit to the Organization.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0No easements were changed during the year
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Conservation easements are monitored and inspected on a regular basis. Violations are encouraged to be corrected by the grantor,or to correct the violations and seek recovery of cost from the grantor.
IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Conservation easements represent rights to restrict the use, access, and development of certain properties. Unrestricted support and expenses are recognized in equal amounts based upon the appraised fair value of the easements. The Organization is obligated to monitor the easements to ensure that the restrictions are maintained. The Organization monitors these easements in the normal course of its operations and the associated costs are expensed as incurred. The estimated value of easements is not included in the Statement of Finacial Position because the easements do not represent a future economic benefit to the Organization.
