| Desc | LAND PROTECTION - SINCE 1988, KLT HAS WORKED COOPERATIVELY WITH LANDOWNERS AND COMMUNITIES TO CONSERVE OUR REGION'S NATURAL ASSETS. KLT HAS CONSERVED 6,645 ACRES IN A SERVICE AREA THAT COVERS 412,000 ACRES AND 21 TOWNS PRIMARILY IN KENNEBEC COUNTY, BUT ALSO ANDROSCOGGIN AND FRANKLIN COUNTIES. KLT HOLDS CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ON, ACCEPTS GIFTS OF, AND PURCHASES SIGNIFICANT LANDS TO FURTHER THE MISSION OF THE ORGANIZATION. KLT'S COMMUNITY CONSERVATION LANDS PROTECT WILDLIFE HABITAT, WATER QUALITY, WORKING FORESTLAND AND FARMLAND, AND SCENIC BEAUTY, AND PROVIDE MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR YEAR ROUND OUTDOOR RECREATION FOR MAINE RESIDENTS AND VISITORS. OVER THE PAST YEARS, KLT ACCOMPLISHED FOUR NOTEWORTHY PROJECTS: AFTER AN AMBITIOUS AND LENGTHY 1.2 MILLION FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN, IN 2017, KLT TRANSFERRED THE 164-ACRE HOWARD HILL PROPERTY IN AUGUSTA TO THE CITY OF AUGUSTA; THE CITY GRANTED A CONSERVATION EASEMENT TO KLT, ENSURING THAT THE PROPERTY WILL BE CONSERVED IN PERPETUITY FOR THE BENEFIT OF MAINE'S PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE. THIS URBAN COMMUNITY PARK PROVIDES YEAR-ROUND RECREATION INCLUDING HIKING, PICNICKING, CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING, NATURE OBSERVATION, AND HUNTING. IN 2017, WITH THE BEQUEST OF THE 120-ACRE WAKEFIELD WILDLIFE SANCTUARY, KLT ACQUIRED FOUR CIRCA 1895 CABINS AND 4000 FEET OF FRONTAGE ON COBBOSSEE STREAM. TWO OF THE FOUR CABINS WERE RESTORED IN 2018 BY THE MAINE CABIN MASTERS AND ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC FOR RENTALS (FIRST RENTAL SEASON BEGAN JULY, 2019). THE CABINS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR LISTING IN THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES. IN MARCH 2019, KLT LAUNCHED AN AMBITIOUS 300,000 FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN TO PERMANENTLY PROTECT 330-ACRES AROUND SURRY HILL AND THE SURROUNDING WOODLANDS, WETLANDS AND FIELDS. FIELD TRIPS, FUNDRAISING GATHERINGS, AND COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE CURRENT OWNER, AREA RESIDENTS, AND KLT DONORS WERE INCORPORATED INTO THE CAMPAIGN. THE PROPERTY WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR OUTDOOR RECREATION, INCLUDING HIKING, MOUNTAIN BIKING, HUNTING, SNOWMMOBILING, AND BLUEBERRY PICKING. THE TOP OF SURRY HILL FEATURES PHENOMENAL VIEWS OF THE WHITE MOUNTAINS AND THE SURROUNDING HILLS, AND THE VILLAGE OF WAYNE AND POCASSET LAKE, ANDROSCOGGIN LAKE, AND ECHO LAKE. THE FIELDS AROUND THE HILLTOP WILL BE MAINTAINED FOR THEIR SCENIC VIEWS AND AS IMPORTANT HABITAT FOR POLLINATORS AND MANY OTHER WILDLIFE SPECIES. -IN JUNE 2019, AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF PROJECT DEVELOPMENT, THE RESEARCH CONTRIBUTIONS OF TWO SUMMER INTERNS, A GENEROUS 150,000 DONATION FROM KLT MEMBERS, AND A GRANT FROM THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION, KLT PURCHASED LAND FOR AN EIGHT-ACRE CONSERVATION BURIAL GROUND. KLT'S BALDWIN HILL CONSERVATION BURIAL GROUND WILL UPHOLD BEST PRACTICES OF CONSERVATION BURIAL AS DEFINED BY THE GREEN BURIAL COUNCIL. THE CEMETERY WILL BE PART OF A LARGER 90-ACRE KLT PROPERTY AND IS CONTIGUOUS WITH 340-ACRES OF KLT EASEMENT LAND. IN DEVELOPING THIS INITIATIVE, KLT SOUGHT TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE FROM A MAINE STATE SOIL SCIENTIST, FUNERAL HOME BUSINESSES, THE GREEN BURIAL COUNCIL, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS. KLT'S MOST RECENT FEE AND EASEMENT ACQUISITIONS ARE: 22-ACRE EASTERN RIVER PRESERVE IN PITTSTON, FEATURING OVER 3,000 FEET OF FRONTAGE ON THE EASTERN RIVER. THE PRESERVE WILL BE MANAGED TO PROTECT WILDLIFE HABITAT AND WATER QUALITY, FOR LOW IMPACT OUTDOOR RECREATION, AND FOR NATURE OBSERVATION. A SHORT, MEANDERING PATH PROVIDES PUBLIC ACCESS TO THE RIVER AND FEATURES THE PROPERTY'S MIXED HARDWOOD AND CONIFER FOREST, 1,000 FEET OF FRONTAGE ON TIDAL OTTER CREEK, AND SCENIC VIEWS OF THE EASTERN RIVER AND AN EXTENSIVE OXBOW. 330-ACRE SURRY HILL COMMUNITY FOREST IN FAYETTE FEATURES 250 ACRES OF FORESTLAND, 600 FOOT SURRY HILL, VALUABLE WETLANDS AND STREAMS, AND TWENTY ACRES OF OPEN FIELDS. 90-ACRE BALDWIN HILL CONSERVATION AREA IN FAYETTE INCLUDES THE LOWER FLANK OF BALDWIN HILL, MIXED CONIFER-HARDWOOD FOREST AND A WOODED WETLAND. WITH THIS ACQUISITION, KLT NOW OWNS OR HOLDS CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ON 448 CONTIGUOUS ACRES OF VALUABLE FARMLAND, FORESTLAND, AND WETLANDS NEAR BALDWIN HILL IN FAYETTE. 38-ACRE LORD ADDITION TO THE 125-ACRE EZRA SMITH WILDLIFE CONSERVATION AREA IN MT VERNON FEATURES WETLANDS ON EITHER SIDE OF HOPKINS STREAM.

| FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | THE KENNEBEC LAND TRUST (KLT)WORKS COOPERATIVELY WITH LANDOWNERS AND COMMUNITIES TO CONSERVE THE FORESTS, SHORELANDS, FIELDS, AND WILDLIFE THAT DEFINE CENTRAL MAINE. KLT PROTECTS LAND PERMANENTLY, OFFERS OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO LEARN ABOUT AND ENJOY THE NATURAL WORLD, AND WORKS WITH PARTNERS TO SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE FORESTRY AND FARMING. IN 2018 KLT CELEBRATED ITS THIRTIETH YEAR OF CONSERVATION WORK IN THE KENNEBEC RIVER AND LAKES REGION. THANKS TO THE GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS AND SUPPORT OF MORE THA 1,100 HOUSEHOLD MEMBERS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS, DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS, BOARD MEMBERS, AND STAFF, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THREE DECADES OF SIGNIFICANT GROWTH AND HAVE DEVELOPED A REPUTATION AS A CONSERVATION LEADER IN OUR 412,000 ACRE SERVICE REGION. WE HAVE RECEIVED STATE-WIDE AND REGIONAL RECOGNITION AND AWARDS FOR OUR DEDICATION TO CONSERVE LAND FOR ITS MANY COMMUNITY BENEFITS INCLUDING PUBLIC USE AND RECREATION. KLT HAS ALWAYS BEEN, AND ALWAYS WILL BE, COMMITTED TO TAKING CARE OF THE LANDS WE CONSERVE. KLT COMPLETED A RIGOROUS PROCESS TO ACHIEVE NATIONAL ACCREDITATION FROM THE LAND TRUST ALLIANCE ACCREDITATION COMMISSION IN 2018 AND ALSO RECEIVED A SOURCE AWARD FROM THE PORTLAND PRESS HERALD TO HONOR LOCAL WOOD WORKS, A KLT INSPIRED PARTNERSHIP FOCUSED ON KEEPING FORESTS AS FORESTS AND PROMOTING SUSTAINABLE NATURAL-RESOURCE BASED ECONOMIES. PERMANENT LAND CONSERVATION AND PROMOTING LAND STEWARDSHIP CONTINUES TO BE THE CENTRAL FOCUS OF KLT'S WORK. SINCE 1988, WE HAVE PARTNERED WITH LANDOWNERS AND CONSERVATION PARTNERS IN TWENTY-ONE COMMUNITIES TO PROTECT MORE THAN 6,645 ACRES THROUGH LAND DONATIONS, FEE PURCHASES, AND CONSERVATION EASEMENTS, AND HAVE CONSTRUCTED 48 MILES OF TRAILS ON KLT LANDS. WE HAVE DEVELOPED AND IMPLEMENTED MANAGEMENT PLANS FOR EACH PROPERTY THAT WE OWN AND HAVE WRITTEN BASELINE DOCUMENTS FOR EVERY CONSERVATION EASEMENT. ALL OF OUR CONSERVATION PROPERTIES ARE MONITORED ANNUALLY. OUR LAND CONSERVATION PROGRAM IS INFORMED BY A STRATEGIC CONSERVATION PLAN. THIS SCIENCE-BASED ASSESSMENT, WHICH IS UPDATED EVERY SEVEN YEARS, GUIDES THE TRUST'S CONSERVATION PLANNING WORK AND PROVIDES VALUABLE PLANNING DATA TO THE TWENTY-ONE COMMUNITIES IN OUR SERVICE AREA. ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-THREE DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS, INCLUDING SIXTY-FIVE LAND STEWARDS, COMMIT OVER 2,039 HOURS OF TIME ANNUALLY TO SUPPORT KLT'S STEWARDSHIP, EDUCATION, ADMINISTRATION, AND GOVERNANCE. KLT HAS HOSTED THIRTY VOLUNTEER INTERNS FROM TWENTY COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES SINCE 2005, HELPING TO DEVELOP THE NEXT GENERATION OF CONSERVATION LEADERS. KLT IS A FOUNDING PARTNER, ALONG WITH THE MAINE FOREST SERVICE (MFS), OF THE KENNEBEC WOODLAND PARTNERSHIP (KWP), A REGIONAL CONSERVATION INITIATIVE WITH THIRTEEN GOVERNMENTAL AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT PROMOTES PRIVATE AND PUBLIC WOODLAND CONSERVATION AND STEWARDSHIP. SINCE 2013, KLT AND SIX OTHER STATEWIDE ENTITIES (MFS, THE NATURE CONSERVANCY, CEI, MAINE COAST HERITAGE TRUST, GROWSMART MAINE, AND THE NORTHERN FOREST CENTER)HAVE WORKED TOGETHER AS THE LOCAL WOOD WORKS (LWW) PARTNERSHIP. THE LWW PARTNERSHIP IS COMMITTED TO PROMOTING GREATER USE OF LOCALLY SOURCED WOOD AND LUMBER AS AN EFFICIENT HEATING ALTERNATIVE TO FOSSIL FUELS, A LIGHT-WEIGHT AND STRONG CONSTRUCTION ALTERNATIVE TO ENERGY- INTENSIVE CONCRETE AND STEEL, AND A MEANS TO SUSTAIN A DIVERSE AND ECOLOGICALLY-RICH FORESTED LANDSCAPE. TWO LWW PAPERS HAVE BEEN WIDELY DISTRIBUTED: -BUILDING MAINE'S LOCAL WOOD ECONOMY, TOGETHER WITH CONSERVATION. -AND, A LONG TERM APPROACH TO FOREST MANAGEMENT: A POSITION PAPER FOR LOCAL WOOD WORKS BY THE KLT AND THE NATURE CONSERVANCY, MAINE. WITH A FOCUS ON INITIATIVES WITH BUILDERS AND ARCHITECTS, LWW DEVELOPED THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS AND INITIATIVES IN 2018-19: -SECOND TOUR OF MAINE WOOD PRODUCERS, FOR ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS, AND BUILDERS HELD ON NOVEMBER 8, 2018 WHICH INCLUDED TWENTY PARTICIPANTS AND EXTENSIVE PRESS COVERAGE. -A COMPELLING VIDEO OF THE MAINE WOOD + SUSTAINABILITY TOUR. -A MASTER SPEC LIST FOR ARCHITECTS AND BUILDERS. -A WEB-BASED DIRECTORY OF THE AREA'S WOOD PRODUCERS. |

| FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4C | LAND PROTECTION - SINCE 1988, KLT HAS WORKED COOPERATIVELY WITH LANDOWNERS AND COMMUNITIES TO CONSERVE OUR REGION'S NATURAL ASSETS. KLT HAS CONSERVED 6,645 ACRES IN A SERVICE AREA THAT COVERS 412,000 ACRES AND 21 TOWNS PRIMARILY IN KENNEBEC COUNTY, BUT ALSO ANDROSCOGGIN AND FRANKLIN COUNTIES. KLT HOLDS CONSERVATION EASEMENTS ON, ACCEPTS GIFTS OF, AND PURCHASES SIGNIFICANT LANDS TO FURTHER THE MISSION OF THE ORGANIZATION. KLT'S COMMUNITY CONSERVATION LANDS PROTECT WILDLIFE HABITAT, WATER QUALITY, WORKING FORESTLAND AND FARMLAND, AND SCENIC BEAUTY, AND PROVIDE MANY OPPORTUNITIES FOR YEAR ROUND OUTDOOR RECREATION FOR MAINE RESIDENTS AND VISITORS. OVER THE PAST YEARS, KLT ACCOMPLISHED FOUR NOTEWORTHY PROJECTS: AFTER AN AMBITIOUS AND LENGTHY 1.2 MILLION FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN, IN 2017, KLT TRANSFERRED THE 164-ACRE HOWARD HILL PROPERTY IN AUGUSTA TO THE CITY OF AUGUSTA; THE CITY GRANTED A CONSERVATION EASEMENT TO KLT, ENSURING THAT THE PROPERTY WILL BE CONSERVED IN PERPETUITY FOR THE BENEFIT OF MAINE'S PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE. THIS URBAN COMMUNITY PARK PROVIDES YEAR-ROUND RECREATION INCLUDING HIKING, PICNICKING, CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING, NATURE OBSERVATION, AND HUNTING. IN 2017, WITH THE BEQUEST OF THE 120-ACRE WAKEFIELD WILDLIFE SANCTUARY, KLT ACQUIRED FOUR CIRCA 1895 CABINS AND 4000 FEET OF FRONTAGE ON COBBOSSEE STREAM. TWO OF THE FOUR CABINS WERE RESTORED IN 2018 BY THE MAINE CABIN MASTERS AND ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC FOR RENTALS (FIRST RENTAL SEASON BEGAN JULY, 2019). THE CABINS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR LISTING IN THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES. IN MARCH 2019, KLT LAUNCHED AN AMBITIOUS 300,000 FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN TO PERMANENTLY PROTECT 330-ACRES AROUND SURRY HILL AND THE SURROUNDING WOODLANDS, WETLANDS AND FIELDS. FIELD TRIPS, FUNDRAISING GATHERINGS, AND COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE CURRENT OWNER, AREA RESIDENTS, AND KLT DONORS WERE INCORPORATED INTO THE CAMPAIGN. THE PROPERTY WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR OUTDOOR RECREATION, INCLUDING HIKING, MOUNTAIN BIKING, HUNTING, SNOWMMOBILING, AND BLUEBERRY PICKING. THE TOP OF SURRY HILL FEATURES PHENOMENAL VIEWS OF THE WHITE MOUNTAINS AND THE SURROUNDING HILLS, AND THE VILLAGE OF WAYNE AND POCASSET LAKE, ANDROSCOGGIN LAKE, AND ECHO LAKE. THE FIELDS AROUND THE HILLTOP WILL BE MAINTAINED FOR THEIR SCENIC VIEWS AND AS IMPORTANT HABITAT FOR POLLINATORS AND MANY OTHER WILDLIFE SPECIES. -IN JUNE 2019, AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF PROJECT DEVELOPMENT, THE RESEARCH CONTRIBUTIONS OF TWO SUMMER INTERNS, A GENEROUS 150,000 DONATION FROM KLT MEMBERS, AND A GRANT FROM THE ROBERT WOOD JOHNSON FOUNDATION, KLT PURCHASED LAND FOR AN EIGHT-ACRE CONSERVATION BURIAL GROUND.

THE CEMETERY WILL BE PART OF A LARGER 90-ACRE KLT PROPERTY AND IS CONTIGUOUS WITH 340-ACRES OF KLT EASEMENT LAND.
