        <ExplanationTxt>In conformity with the practice followed by public land trusts, the Trust's conservation easements purchased or donated are not recorded as assets in the statement of financial position. The Trust believes the conservation easements do not have a future economic benefit as the property interest held by the Trust 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 land conservation expense at fair value in the statement of activities when an unconditional commitment is received from the donor. Easement fair values have been determined by independent third-party appraisals at the time the easement is secured. The Trust monitors these easements in the normal course of its operations and associated costs are expensed as incurred.</ExplanationTxt>

        <ExplanationTxt>The conflict of interest policy covers board members, staff, others who have the ability to influence decisions of the organization, and others with access to information not available to the public (such as volunteers, contractors, etc.). Those that are deemed to have a conflict of interest must declare so to the board of directors and abstain from any board/committee actions. All relationships and transaction details are appropriately documented, reviewed by the board, who has final determination of the nature and magnitude of the conflict of interest. At the board's request, anyone with a conflict of interest may be required to take a temporary leave of absence, if necessary, to avoid any such conflicts.</ExplanationTxt>
