Mckenzie River Trust

“Land held for conservation: purchased land is recorded at cost. Donated land is recorded as a contribution at its estimated fair market value at the date of gift. The board may from time to time evaluate the carrying value of land held for conservation, and if the value of the property appears impaired based upon restrictions imposed by the board or a third- party funding source, the board may adjust the value of the land based on the restrictions imposed. While professional appraisals are used to determine a fair market value for conservation easements held by the trust, that value is not convertible by the trust and holding the easement increases the trust's stewardship obligations. Consequently, easements are recorded at a nominal 1 value for tracking purposes only.”

“Schedule d, part ii, line 5 - easement monitoring policy: mrt's general easement policy states that we will maintain constructive, regular, face-to-face and written contact with landowners of each conservation easement held by the trust. At a minimum, mrt annually monitors and documents the conditions on properties subject to conservation easements. Monitoring includes visiting with landowners, taking photographs of the property, and boundary inspections as they pertain to the terms of the easement. Landowners are provided a written report of the monitoring visit. Mrt's violation policy lays out the steps the organization should take in the event of a suspected or documented violation, including notification, documentation, and negotiation with the landowner. Procedures such as legal action, arbitration, and mediation are also written into the easement to handle violations and enforcement. The easement grantor signs onto these agreements when the easement is finalized and recorded.”
