“TEXT OF THE FOOTNOTE TO THE ORGANIZATION'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBES THE ORGANIZATION'S ACCOUNTING FOR CONSERVATION EASEMENTS: "The Trust has acquired and holds a number of conservation easements, each representing a legal interest in land owned by another person or entity. The easements grant the Trust the right to use, control, and/or protect the land for conservation purposes. Because of the unique nature of these assets, the impracticality of obtaining consistent and reliable estimates of the values ascribed to these interests, and consistent with the practices followed by many environmental land trusts, the accompanying financial statements do not include any amounts for these property interests. At December 31, 2016 the Trust held 47 conservation easements on 4,654 acres of land (52 conservation easements and 4,658 acres of land at December 31, 2015)."”
