Governance Explanations
Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B
“The organization's form 990 will be prepared with the assistance of an independent certified public accountant. The completed return, including all required schedules and statements, will be provided to the organization's board of directors at least 21 days prior to the deadline for submission of the return to the internal revenue service. The completed return will be reviewed by the treasurer who will make sure that the information it contains is accurate and complete. If it is not, the treasurer will inform the organization's president, who will inform the preparer of the necessary corrections and additions. If necessary, the preparer will be instructed to request an extension of the filing deadline. Once the treasurer has determined that the return is accurate and complete, the 990 or 990-ez is presented to the board of directors at the next board meeting. After the board has recommended approval of the 990 or 990-ez, the treasurer will sign the return and arrange for it to be filed. A copy of the return will be retained with the organization's records, in keeping with the recordkeeping policy.”
Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C
“The organization requires that all members of the board of directors sign the conflict of interest policy and the organization asks that board members disclose any conflicts at the board meetings. If there is a conflict, that board member is asked to leave the room and the minutes reflect that the person left the room and when the person returned.”
Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A
“Salaries are determined by the executive committee and a record of the meeting and decision is recorded in the minutes.”

Financial Statement Notes
Schedule D, Page 1, Part II, Line 9
“The organization received all of its easements via donation. The organization does not report donated easements as revenues or as assets. The footnotes to the organization's financial statements include the following related to conservation easements: "property owners grant to the corporation conservation easements that restrict the owner's use of the land in perpetuity. Some allow the corporation to conduct research and studies on the properties. At december 31, 2014, the corporation held easements on six properties for a total of 730 acres. Since the corporation does not receive any rights to the property, the corporation does not report a value."”
Schedule D, Page 2, Part V, Line 4
“Endowment funds are to be invested in perpetuity, the income from which is to be used to monitor and enforce conservation easements. In the remote instance of a legal challenge to a conservation easement that is not covered by insurance, principle of the endowment may be used to defend easement.”
Schedule D, Page 3, Part X
“The corporation is exempt from income taxes according to the provisions of section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and has not earned any unrelated business taxable income. Therefore, the corporation has no provision for federal income taxes. In addition, the corporation qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction and has been classified by the internal revenue service as an organization that is not a private foundation.”
