“Disclosed in audited financial statement footnote”
“Sch d, pg 4 & 5: explanation-2 note 1 organization and significant accounting policies: conservation easements represent rights to restrict the use, access, and development of certain properties. In conformity with the practice followed by public land trusts, blcs conservation easements purchased or donated are not recorded as assets in the statement of financial position. Blc believes the conservation easements do not have a future economic benefit as the property interest held by blc provides no affirmative rights beyond the obligation to monitor and enforce the terms of the easements. Contributed conservation easements are recognized as revenue and as conservation expense at fair value in the statement of activities when an unconditional commitment is received from the donor. Easement fair values are determined by independent third-party appraisals at the time the easement is secured. Blc monitors these easements in the normal course of its operations and associated costs are expensed as incurred.”
