| Desc | Conservation programs work to preserve, protect, and restore important coastal habitats that provide critical ecosystem services and have suffered loss or degradation. Galveston Bay Foundation (GBF) works closely with numerous partners in land acquisition, land stewardship, habitat restoration, and habitat enhancement activities across the Bay. As an accredited land trust, GBF protects natural areas by acquiring real estate and partnering with landowners to establish conservation easements on private lands. Currently, GBF owns or holds over 8,000 acres of land for conservation purposes around Galveston Bay to ensure it is conserved in perpetuity. In 2019, GBF closed on three new conservation properties -- the 35-acre Angleton Prairie in Brazoria County and 3-acre Treasure Circle property in Galveston County, both through fee simple acquisition, and a 23-acre conservation easement at the San Jacinto Battleground in Harris County. Habitat restoration activities work to ensure healthy habitats for productive and sustainable populations of native species. Projects focus on shoreline protection; wetlands, oyster reef, and bird rookery restoration; and removal of marine debris. For its decades of contribution to the restoration of Galveston Bay wetlands, GBF received the 2019 Excellence in Ecological Restoration Award from the Texas Society for Ecological Restoration. | Desc |

| Desc | Education and outreach programs reach thousands of youth and adults each year. The goal of the program is to develop a knowledgeable constituency, ranging from school children to public officials, which recognizes the positive quality-of-life benefits that a healthy Galveston Bay system provides for the Houston-Galveston region. Youth-focused programs are offered both in the classroom and on the Bay and aim to cultivate life-long stewards of the Bay through environmental education experiences that nurture exploration and inquisition. Beyond youth education, our public outreach initiatives consist of campaigns and events aimed at increasing the publics awareness of the importance of Galveston Bay. Ongoing campaigns, such as the Pump Dont Dump and Seafood Consumption Advisory campaigns, continue to educate targeted segments of the population on various Bay issues of concern. GBF continues to host our annual signature education and outreach events, including the family friendly Bay Day Festival, a one-day celebration of Galveston Bay, and the popular Bike Around the Bay two-day bike ride that showcases the natural beauty of Galveston Bay while aiming to raise awareness and encourage area citizens to appreciate and visit the Bay. We also offer rain barrel installation workshops and distribute rain barrels to the public. | Desc |

| Desc | Research programs focus on the monitoring some of Galveston Bays most valuable coastal resources. Several programs utilize trained citizen scientists to augment professional monitoring data and aid in watershed planning. Most monitoring efforts are ongoing in an effort to collect large datasets spanning many years. Some, however, are initiated to allow us to respond to incidents impacting Galveston Bay. Beyond the research efforts we take on, GBF also regularly advocates for the allocation of research dollars to the region to ensure the health of Galveston Bay and its users. | Desc |

| Part II, Line 5: Summarized Policy | Monitoring and inspections of conservation easements are conducted at least once per year via ground inspection by the Conservation Lands Manager or his appropriately trained designee. Enforcement of easements is conducted primarily through landowner education and relationship building, but GBF also carries legal insurance if litigation becomes necessary. All easements are monitored, inspected, and enforced. |
| Part II, Line 9: Organization Reporting of conservation easements. | Conservation easements represent rights to restrict the use, access, and development of certain properties. GBF monitors these easements in the normal course of its operations and associated costs are expensed as incurred. The Foundation receives gifts of conservation easements and grants toward the purchase of conservation easements, which represent numerous restrictions over the use and development of land not owned by the Foundation. The donated value of the conservation easements are recorded, based on the estimated appraised value, as revenue when received and estimated conservation easement expense is recorded for an equal amount. Easements are not reported as assets because the Foundation does not believe the easements represents a future economic benefit. |
| Part IV, Line 2b: Explanation of escrow account liability | GBF holds custodial funds pursuant to an agreement with another local nonprofit conservation entity for the purchase of undeveloped land. GBF will hold these funds until they are requested for disbursement for such purchase. |

A final report is due upon completion of the project which details the use of the funds and the project accomplishments. | ExplanationTxt |
