Additional Explanations

List of other fees for services expenses Part IX line 11G

“Contract work associated with monitoring a conservation easement held by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.”

Financial Statement Notes

Endowment funds intended uses (Part V, line 4)

“The organization has a Memorandum of Understanding with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to hold this endowment and use the investment earnings from it to monitor and report on the status of conservation easement held by the Bureau. The term of this Agreement is ten years, renewable upon agreement with both parties. The endowment balance will be returned to the Bureau upon termination of the Agreement. Thus, the endowment is considered temporary to the organization, but is intended to provide a perpetual source of revenue for the conservation easement held by the Bureau of Reclamation.”

IRS990/Desc0Conservation easement monitoring, managing, and reporting: Investment earnings generated by an endowment from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (the conservation easement holder) to conduct this contracted work. Our investment committee voluntarily continued to monitor and report on the status of the endowment account. The 3-Links field monitoring committee, consisting of four LSPWA directors, continued to review, edit, and approve all quarterly and annual reports prepared by our contracted field manager as well as working through a considerable set of management challenges that we faced at this farm during the past year. Our Treasurer contracted for accounting and tax preparation services during the past year, in order to address the administrative challenges of monitoring the endowment. This program area benefits our mission by setting a high standard for maintaining the terms of conservation easements in the lower San Pedro watershed.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Legal/administrative process efforts: associated with advocacy for following conservation laws. LSPWA invested approximately 100 hours of volunteer time reviewing court filings, as we continued to advocate for analyzing the impacts of a proposed 70,000 resident development. 3 members of LSPWA served on the litigation review committee. All cash expenses were related to hiring expert witnesses and paying court filing fees, but all attorney services were provided by Earthjustice on a pro-bono basis. Additionally, all LSPWA board members and some of our members at large invested several hundred hours of volunteer time preparing administrative process comment documents and attending meetings associated with other action proposals affecting the lower San Pedro watershed. This program area benefits our mission by defending existing Acts of Congress related to conservation law and applying that law to the ecological protection of the San Pedro watershed.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Collaborative Conservation: LSPWA spent hundreds of hours of volunteer time to participate in quarterly meetings, working group meetings, socially-distanced field tours, wildlife monitoring, and document preparation. All funds spent in the program area went to help pay LSPWAs share of costs associated with facilitating meetings of the Lower San Pedro Collaborative, an association of 20 agency and non-governmental groups with an interest in maintaining and improving conservation values in the watershed. This program area benefits our mission by developing collaborative relationships with other parties interested in conserving the natural resources of the lower San Pedro watershed, as we accomplish conservation goals related to public education, sustainable rural economic development, wildlife corridor connectivity, the coordination of various County resource plans, soil and water conservation, and the abatement of invasive vegetation species.
