Desc	General update on program accomplishments and sampling of our accomplishments over the past year. PROTECT Staying true to our roots, we are still in the business of protecting lands, rivers and oceans, especially in situations where there is extraordinary ecological significance at stake and where the scale of the opportunity is likely beyond the reach of other organizations. In January, for example, we completed one of the biggest land deals in TNC's history: a 165,000-acre, $134 million acquisition of forests, rivers and other wildlife habitat in Washington and Montana. The project links privately owned parcels dispersed among protected lands, mostly within U.S. national forests. The "checkerboard" parcels purchased in this transaction almost certainly would have been developed otherwise. We can achieve success like this only with great partners. Thanks to supporters open to financial innovation, we were able to secure 95 percent of the capital from impact investors through NatureVest, TNC's new impact investment unit. We will always rely on-and greatly appreciate-the generous support of traditional philanthropists, and now additional funding from mission-driven investors is leveraging our donors' contributions and allowing us to accomplish much more. TRANSFORM Transforming how society values and uses nature means working with businesses, governments and communities to help leaders develop policies and practices that support healthy natural systems. Because this approach relies on intellectual -not financial-capital, there's no limit to what we can accomplish. Take, for instance, our work in Nairobi, Kenya, where we are establishing Africa's first water fund. With the help of great partners, TNC is using this water fund mechanism-a model we pioneered 15 years ago in Quito, Ecuador-to help Kenyans transform how they manage land in the watershed of the Tana River, the region's main source for drinking water, agriculture and hydropower. Through the water fund, downstream water users pay fees to support conservation projects that protect upstream lands, improving filtration and regulation of the river's flow. It's a win-win for nature and people: The upstream conservation practices protect wildlife habitat, improve water quality and supply, increase agricultural yields, and save downstream users money by avoiding the need for costly water treatments. First across Latin America, and now all around the world, water funds are allowing TNC to bring together community groups, farmers and ranchers, local and federal governments, businesses of all sizes, and fellow environmentalists to scale up on-the-ground conservation with multiple benefits-water security, biodiversity protection and economic development. INSPIRE To scale up strategies like these, we also need more people on our side. That's why we are ramping up our efforts to inspire greater support for nature-to grow that group of people who love nature and serve as its champions. Transformative science will be critical to those efforts. Last year, we continued to build close partnerships with leading universities and their scientists. Our Science for Nature and People (SNAP) collaborative convenes scientists, policymakers and practitioners to develop practical, nature-based solutions to challenges at the intersection of nature and human well-being. And our NatureNet Science Fellows Program-a collaboration with Columbia, Cornell, Princeton, Stanford, the University of Pennsylvania and Yale-is now in its third year of building the next generation of conservation science leaders. This year's fellows are focusing on clean energy technology, water security and sustainable agriculture. On the policy front, we generated great momentum on Election Day this past year in the United States, achieving the biggest conservation funding victory in U.S. history. TNC worked in 19 states-both blue and red-to win bipartisan voter approval of 27 measures that dedicate more than $29 billion to the environment. I'm proud of the work my colleagues and our volunteers put into making that happen. But we can't stop there. Those victories make me hopeful that we can break the logjam on the most pressing challenge we face: climate change. We have begun a 50-state climate strategy that taps into our local resources to achieve reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in whatever way works best for each state. It includes an alliance between TNC and Environmental Defense Fund to accelerate the transition to clean energy, rebuild the political center on climate and make natural infrastructure part of the climate solution. And, of course, we're also pursuing our climate agenda all around the world. For instance, we're working with farmers, loggers and others in tropical forest regions to implement sustainable development practices and reduce deforestation, a major driver of greenhouse gas emissions. And we will do everything we can-together with our partners-to help build the most robust international climate framework possible. LOOKING FORWARD As a science-based, nonpartisan, inclusive organization that brings people together to find common ground and commonsense solutions, we are well-positioned to protect vital habitats, transform the way society values and invests in nature, and inspire and broaden the constituency for conservation. None of this will be easy, but I believe there is reason to be optimistic. TNC can be an effective force for change in the conservation movement by bringing together people and organizations with diverse views and encouraging them to set aside their differences, learn from one another and work collaboratively toward shared goals. Together, we can accelerate progress on the world's most pressing environmental challenges.	Desc

Explanation	The lobbying work of The Nature Conservancy advances the tax exempt purpose of the organization focusing on conservation of land and water. The Nature Conservancy devoted .86% of its exempt purpose expenditures to attempting to influence legislation in the 2014 tax year. The Conservancy continued to advocate for strong policies and funding for critical natural habitat protection and restoration at U.S. federal and state governments level. Legislation like the U.S. Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund, Sportsman's Act related to wetlands and fishing, conservation programs protecting grasslands, environmentally sustainable working lands, and forests in the U.S. Farm Bill, and natural infrastructure preservation, resiliency and restoration in various U.S. transportation bills were key to the advocacy agenda; and sustaining funding for critical programs like National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration oceans programs, habitat conservation and restoration and flood controls, National Park Service, and the Department of Agriculture's forest and fire management was a core priority for long term conservation. Conservation easements continued to be a priority at the U.S. federal level with the renewal of the federal tax incentive for donations of conservation easements. Preservation or improvement of state trusts and similar long-term funding mechanisms was a priority, such as the South Carolina Conservation Bank, Wyoming Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust, Land for Maine's Future, Iowa Natural Resources and Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund, Florida Forever and Rural and Family Lands, New Hampshire Land and Community Investment Program, Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund, and North Carolina Clean Water Management Trust Fund. At the state and local level, a focus included public policy to address the press of climate change adaptation, to develop policy that will include natural infrastructure in planning to assure that environmental solutions are considered for impacts, such as flood control, and to adopt clean energy approaches in places like Pennsylvania, New York, Virginia, and California. Support continued for various ballot measures because the public has consistently shown commitment to conservation on state and local ballots including California, Florida, Maine, New Jersey, Rhode Island and New York. Efforts continued to advance shoreline protections with policy for conservation and people in places like Washington, New York, Maryland, and Florida. Freshwater, nutrient runoff, stormwater, and wetlands policies dominate the agenda at the state and local level in places like New Mexico, New York, Texas, Maryland, New Jersey, and Ohio. Forest and fire management policy was advanced in places like Montana, Arkansas, Oregon, Arizona, Hawaii, and Illinois. The Conservancy's effort ultimately protect the natural resources in places like the Chattahoochee-Oconee forest, Mississippi river basin, Gulf of Maine, Puget Sound, Great Lakes, Gulf of Mexico, and the Rio Grande. The Nature Conservancy does a small amount of its lobbying in countries such as Canada and Mexico where conservation experiences are shared to adopt sustainable land and water use policy with long term funding methods for protection, restoration and management of nature's resources. Some volunteers, but no more than 800 hours, were used by the Conservancy to influence legislation to protect existing government conservation programs and pursue opportunities for increased protections.

Schedule D, Part II, Line 5	The Nature Conservancy's written policy regarding the periodic monitoring, inspection, violations, and enforcement of the conservation easements it holds is governed by our Standard Operating Procedure, Conservation Easements and Deed Restrictions. Excerpts from the procedure follow. Each Business Unit will be responsible for monitoring compliance with the terms of all Conservation Interests for which it must prepare or obtain a Baseline. For purposes of this Standard Operating Procedure, "Business Unit" means the Conservancy business unit in which the Conservation Interest is located or, if different, the Conservancy Business Unit responsible for monitoring and enforcement of the Conservation Interest. A. Monitoring Team. Each Business Unit will establish a Monitoring Team which will consist of at least one staff member and may include third party volunteers or contractors. All members of the Monitoring Team must be trained on Conservancy procedures and practices for monitoring Conservation Interests. The Monitoring Team will be responsible for ensuring that monitoring is completed and documented in accordance with this SOP. B. Monitoring Frequency. Conservation Interests will be monitored at least once each calendar year beginning with the calendar year after the Conservation Interest was accepted or acquired. The first monitoring will occur no more than 15 months after the date the Conservation Interest was accepted or acquired. C. Time and Expense Reporting. To comply with Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") requirements use Activity Code 10000 (called "Easement Monitoring") to report all expenses incurred in inspecting, monitoring and enforcing Conservation Easements. Business Units must follow the Finance Department's guidance for reporting: 1. Staff hours (to be reported in bi-weekly time reports), 2. Volunteer hours (to the extent required by Finance Department guidance), 3. Contractor fees (including outside counsel fees), and 4. Travel and other related expenses. D. Monitoring Reports. Monitoring results must be documented contemporaneously (within two months after monitoring occurs) in a report that describes the condition of the property and the protected conservation values as defined in the Conservation Interest. The monitoring report must include the information described in Checklist of Required Fields for Compliance Monitoring Template. Business Units may modify the templates or create their own monitoring report form provided that it contains the required content. Business Units: 1. are encouraged to use the same form consistently for all Conservation Interests that the BU monitors and in all cases, all required fields must be completed; 2. are encouraged to provide the landowner with a copy of the monitoring report and request that it be signed and, if feasible, notarized to indicate landowner's agreement with its contents; and 3. must maintain monitoring reports in accordance with the Conservancy's Records Retention Schedule. 3 E. Compliance Status. The Monitoring Team, with approval of the Business Unit director or the director's designee, shall determine the compliance status of the Conservation Interest as one of the following: 1. In compliance 2. In review 3. In violation. If voluntary resolution of a violation is not possible (e.g., because the time period to bring a judicial action will end under applicable statutes of limitation), the Business Unit will proceed with formal enforcement. Formal enforcement action shall be taken in accordance with an enforcement plan to be developed by the Business Unit and assigned attorney and approved by the Regional Director or in the U.S., by the Division Director. If the enforcement plan includes litigation, approval of the responsible Associate General Counsel and General Counsel shall be obtained prior to initiation of litigation.
Schedule D, Part II, Line 9	The Conservancy records land and land interests at cost if purchased or at fair value at the date of acquisition, if all or part of the land was received as a donation. Fair value is generally determined by appraisal at the time of acquisition and is not subsequently adjusted. Upon sale or gift, the book value of the land or land interest is reported as a program expense and the related proceeds, if any, are reported as revenue in the consolidated statement of activities. Conservation land is real property with significant ecological value. These properties are either managed in an effort to protect the natural biological diversity of the property, or transferred to other organizations who will manage the lands in a similar fashion. Conservation easements are comprised of listed rights and/or restrictions over the owned property that are conveyed by a property owner to the Conservancy, almost always in perpetuity, in order to protect the owned property as a significant natural area, as defined in federal tax regulations. These intangible assets may be sold or transferred to others so long as the assignee agrees to carry out, in perpetuity, the conservation purposes intended by the original grantor. Conservation easements, by their very nature, do not generate material amounts of cash inflow annually.
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4	The Endowment includes approximately 770 individual endowment funds. The Endowment provides stable financial support to a wide variety of programs and activities in perpetuity, playing a critical role in enabling the Conservancy to achieve its mission. Programs supported by the Endowment include restoring, monitoring, and managing natural areas owned by the Conservancy and others, as well as, many other activities and actions vital to the preservation of natural diversity. The Endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Directors (Board) to function as endowments. Net assets associated with endowment funds, including Board-designated endowment funds, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2	The Conservancy has been granted an exemption from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Internal Revenue Service has classified the Conservancy as other than a private foundation. The Conservancy pays a nominal amount of tax relating to several unrelated business income activities, primarily rental income from debt-financed property. The Conservancy takes no tax positions that it considers to be uncertain.

Form And Line Reference	Schedule F, Part I, Line 2	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	The Nature Conservancy's procedure for monitoring grants outside the United States is governed by the Government Grants, Cooperative Agreements, Contracts and Other Agreements Negotiation and Administration Standard Operating Procedure the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with government laws and regulations and to ensure the efficient and effective management of funds provided by U.S. federal, state and local governments, other national and local governments, and multilateral sources by the Conservancy, as well as Conservancy funds provided to other entities. The SOP is excerpted as follows: All staff responsible for government grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and other agreements will negotiate and administer such awards in an efficient and effective manner. The Conservancy has a Grants Service Network to ensure that this occurs, including assuring compliance with all applicable funder statutes and regulations. The attached table assigns performance responsibilities to the key positions involved in the negotiation and administration of the following types of agreements: 1. agreements to the Conservancy from United States federal, state and local government agencies, multilateral agencies, and other national and local governments; and 2. the Conservancy's grants of funds to other entities, including those funded by a government agency, multilateral organization, other non-profit organization, private foundation, or private donor. Conservancy grants to other entities are also subject to the "Grants by the Nature Conservancy to Grantees" Standard Operating Procedure. In order to effectively manage these agreements and to ensure accountability, the Conservancy employs a team approach during all stages of the process, from pre-proposal discussions with potential funding agencies through final closeout of specific agreements. Working as a team assures that the Conservancy successfully secures government funding for conservation projects and carries out these projects in compliance with both external and internal requirements, negotiating the best possible agreements and ensuring the projects are completed on time and within budget. Essential team members are a Project Manager, a Grants Specialist, and an Attorney. As appropriate, team members at any stage of the process should solicit input from staff in their respective Business Units, such as finance, philanthropy, external affairs or other conservation staff.

Form And Line Reference	Schedule I, Part I, Line 2	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	The Nature Conservancy's procedure for monitoring grants within the United States is governed by the Government Grants, Cooperative Agreements, Contracts and Other Agreements Negotiation and Administration Standard Operating Procedure the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with government laws and regulations and to ensure the efficient and effective management of funds provided by U.S. federal, state and local governments, other national and local governments, and multilateral sources by the Conservancy, as well as Conservancy funds provided to other entities. The SOP is excerpted as follows: All staff responsible for government grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and other agreements will negotiate and administer such awards in an efficient and effective manner. The Conservancy has a Grants Service Network to ensure that this occurs, including assuring compliance with all applicable funder statutes and regulations. The attached table assigns performance responsibilities to the key positions involved in the negotiation and administration of the following types of agreements: 1. agreements to the Conservancy from United States federal, state and local government agencies, multilateral agencies, and other national and local governments; and 2. the Conservancy's grants of funds to other entities, including those funded by a government agency, multilateral organization, other non-profit organization, private foundation, or private donor. Conservancy grants to other entities are also subject to the "Grants by the Nature Conservancy to Grantees" Standard Operating Procedure. In order to effectively manage these agreements and to ensure accountability, the Conservancy employs a team approach during all stages of the process, from pre-proposal discussions with potential funding agencies through final closeout of specific agreements. Working as a team assures that the Conservancy successfully secures government funding for conservation projects and carries out these projects in compliance with both external and internal requirements, negotiating the best possible agreements and ensuring the projects are completed on time and within budget. Essential team members are a Project Manager, a Grants Specialist, and an Attorney. As appropriate, team members at any stage of the process should solicit input from staff in their respective Business Units, such as finance, philanthropy, external affairs or other conservation staff.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4a	LANDS Brazil's Amazon Basin. Engaging agricultural producers and indigenous communities to stem the loss of forests. The conservation of such a vast and globally important resource as the Amazon Basin requires coordinated strategies that recognize the natural values of forests, the cultural importance of land tenure and the economic realities of agricultural commodities. Brazil's progressive Forest Code requires Amazon landowners to maintain native forest cover on between 50 and 80 percent of their land, but until fairly recently, the requirements were widely ignored. By demonstrating win win solutions for production and protection in areas where the deforestation threat is greatest, Nature Conservancy innovation is enabling compliance with the Forest Code, while increasing economic opportunity. We are also working with indigenous peoples to integrate traditional knowledge with modern approaches to landscape planning in order to enable greater leadership in deciding how their traditional territories will be managed and to have a stronger voice in policy decisions. At the same time, the Conservancy is developing a blueprint for the basin of the Tapajos River, a major tributary of the Amazon, using tailor made geospatial tools and models to help guide Brazilian environmental and natural resource agencies in decisions regarding dams and other development. Western Checkerboard Deal, United States. To encourage the railroads to expand west in the 1860s, the U.S. Congress gave away every other square mile of land, creating a checkerboard pattern of private and public ownership. With the launch of the Great Western Checkerboard Project, The Nature Conservancy will help conserve the ecological integrity of 257 square miles of forests, rivers and wildlife habitat in the eastern Cascade Mountains of Washington and in the Blackfoot River valley in Montana. Through NatureVest, the Conservancy and other investors used interim financing to acquire the lands, stitching together these important migratory corridors that link up through Canada. Loisaba Conservancy, Kenya. Nature Conservancy donors provided 9 million dollars to transfer a 56,000 acre private property in northern Kenya into the holding of a newly formed conservation trust. This transaction maintains an important wildlife corridor for elephants, protects habitat for 260 bird and 57 mammal species, and supports jobs, schools, health clinics and sustainable grazing options. Combined with adjoining lands of Conservancy partners Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and Northern Rangelands Trust, the Loisaba addition brings conservation management in the area to more than 10 million acres, about the size of Denmark. Martu Living Deserts, Australia. The Nature Conservancy is supporting an unprecedented effort to conserve part of the world's most intact desert in Western Australia. Spanning an area larger than the state of Mississippi, the Martu Living Deserts Project is an innovative collaboration between the Conservancy, global resource company BHP Billiton and local indigenous organization Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa. The project aims to sustainably manage and protect the lands and heritage of the Martu people, whose culture is one of the world's oldest. Combining modern science with traditional knowledge, indigenous rangers undertake fire and feral predator management, threatened species protection, and waterhole maintenance. Protected Areas, Mongolia. The Nature Conservancy has completed assessments of biodiversity, habitats and threats across the entirety of Mongolia. Already, more than 7 million acres of national and local protected areas have been established in critical places, bringing Mongolia's protected area network to 66 million acres, about the size of Colorado. At the invitation of the Mongolian government, the Conservancy is also now applying its Development by Design principles to guide land use decisions, including for mining and infrastructure development, in the Gobi Desert. WATER The Yangtze River. Balancing hydropower with the needs of fish and wildlife. From its headwaters in the Tibetan Plateau, the Yangtze River flows across China and empties into the East China Sea near the historic city of Shanghai. The river has great cultural significance and has provided food and livelihoods for millions of people who have lived along its shores for centuries. But with China's rapid development, its rivers, including the Yangtze, are seen as a primary source of carbon neutral electricity. Must development come at the expense of fish and wildlife habitat and people's well being? The Nature Conservancy is working with Chinese partners on several fronts along the length of the Yangtze to safeguard crucial fish habitat, establish water funds that enable urban centers to invest in watershed conservation, and engage the hydropower industry on how dams are planned, designed and operated, in order to protect and restore fish habitat and other environmental values. Innovations and relationships built in China will be applied to great rivers around the world. Saving Great Rivers. The Nature Conservancy launched the Center for Sustainable Hydropower in Beijing to ensure that conservation has a seat at the table with hydropower decision makers as China accounts for about half of the world's dams. The center will serve as a resource for governments, hydropower companies, and other stakeholders seeking to better understand and incorporate conservation practices into hydropower development plans. By working with these key decision makers, the Conservancy is pursuing new ways to protect the world's most important rivers. Nairobi and the Tana River Water Fund. The Nature Conservancy's Urban Water Blueprint identified Nairobi, Kenya, as a city that could secure water quality through upstream conservation actions. Now the Conservancy and an alliance of other NGOs and businesses are launching the first water fund in Africa to protect the Tana River for the benefit of farmers, businesses, communities and wildlife throughout the watershed. By investing 10 million dollars in planting trees and installing innovative water conservation technology and other actions, downstream users will save an estimated 21.5 million dollars in water treatment costs over 30 years. Chilean Green Infrastructure. In Chile, The Nature Conservancy launched an innovative green infrastructure project aimed at demonstrating that using nature to contain and filter drinking water can be more cost effective than constructing concrete infrastructure and water treatment facilities. Scientists and wetlands experts from the Conservancy and other institutions are working to protect wetlands in the Maipo watershed that provide fresh water to more than 6 million people in the metropolitan area of Santiago, Chile's capital city. The wetlands are 2,700 meters above sea level and less than 70 miles from Santiago. Great Lakes Certification. Lake Erie provides drinking water to millions and is home to more than half of all Great Lakes fish. Recent algal blooms fed by fertilizer runoff from farms have threatened fish and drinking water alike. In response, The Nature Conservancy, researchers and members of the agriculture industry pioneered a certification program that encourages fertilizer service providers to adopt proven best practices to keep nutrients in the field and out of rivers and streams. Sixteen providers completed the voluntary audits and became certified in the first year, influencing more than 1.1 million acres of farmland. The certification program is now expanding into the Mississippi River watershed. Continued on line 4b.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b	Continued from Line 4a. OCEANS Indonesia's Lesser Sunda Region. Managing waters for commerce and ways of life. Ocean waters surrounding the Indonesian archipelago are a rich source of natural diversity, food and livelihoods for local people and of commercial opportunities for fishing, shipping and tourism. Whales, manta rays and sea turtles traverse the same routes where commercial ships ply the waters and subsistence fishers eke out a living. Such increasingly busy waterways, here and around the world, demand a holistic approach to managing and maintaining their health and viability. The Lesser Sunda region offers an example of how The Nature Conservancy pursues the conservation of marine resources at a system wide scale with multiple partners. By combining traditional parks and marine protected areas with sustainable fisheries management and the strengthening of alternative livelihoods, such as seaweed farming, pressure on overexploited local fisheries can be relieved while stocks rebound. And marine spatial planning, a decision making process that creates a blueprint for ocean use and conservation, allows other commercial activities to be more effectively managed and regulated. Micronesian Shark Sanctuary. The Federated States of Micronesia has joined Palau, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and the Marshall Islands to establish the world's largest regional shark sanctuary, covering nearly 3 million square miles, an area almost the size of the continental United States. The waters will now be off limits to shark finning and fishing. The Nature Conservancy was invited by the Micronesian government to join its shark legislation working committee because of the organization's history of neutrality and productive partnerships. Gulf of Maine Fisheries. The Nature Conservancy is working across Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts to restore fisheries, revitalize the fishing economy and enhance the lives of people who rely on the Gulf of Maine's health. Among the innovations are acquiring fishing permits, testing methods and gear that limit by catch, and introducing video monitoring to make reporting catch more efficient. Fishermen off Cape Cod are helping the Conservancy study Atlantic cod, with the aim of restoring the iconic fish. And near shore, the Conservancy is restoring oyster beds and eelgrass to improve water quality and habitat for juvenile fish. New Bahamas Marine Parks. Thanks to The Nature Conservancy's support, five new national marine parks have been declared in the Bahamas. This is a significant step toward fulfillment of the Bahamian government's commitment to the Caribbean Challenge Initiative, which aims to conserve at least 20 percent of the region's near shore marine and coastal environments by 2020. The parks encompass nurseries for Nassau grouper, queen conch and spiny lobster, as well as crucial grounds for seabird species that breed in the Bahamas. The parks will benefit local fishers and, consequently, food security, and will help create jobs by stimulating ecotourism. Southern Seascapes Restoration. In Australia The Nature Conservancy has worked with the Victoria government and Albert Park Yachting and Angling Club to restore Port Phillip Bay's lost shellfish reefs. Drawing on experience from shellfish restoration projects around the world, the project is testing innovative methods to reestablish the reefs, which filter water and provide habitat for fish. The project is the first restoration effort in the Conservancy's Great Southern Seascapes program, which includes the bays and estuaries of Australia's southern coastline. CLIMATE A 50 State Strategy. Climate policy and action as exemplified by California. As part of The Nature Conservancy's global efforts to affect policy and demonstrate nature based solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, each U.S. state program is harnessing local knowledge and relationships to increase support for emissions reductions nationwide. To accelerate this work, we are partnering with Environmental Defense Fund to advance clean energy and generate bipartisan support for climate action. Building on the momentum of our initial efforts together in New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, we are now expanding our partnership to additional states and at the national level. California has one of the most advanced state programs on climate, with a multifaceted strategy. Working with numerous state agencies, landowners and other nonprofits, the Conservancy in California is advancing innovative conservation solutions with successful public policy advocacy to achieve three critical goals, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, remove carbon from the atmosphere, and prepare for and adapt to climate change. California's establishment of a local forest carbon market, for instance, is inspiring other states and informing similar efforts around the world. 50 State Climate Strategy. The Nature Conservancy has launched a new 50 state strategy to achieve meaningful emissions reductions across the United States. Each state program has developed work plans for climate and clean energy policies, on the ground emissions reduction activities, and outreach and coalition building with major constituencies. The initiative aims to harness local knowledge and relationships to advance emissions reductions at the state level and to achieve attitudinal shifts on clean energy and climate among policy leaders at all levels of government. Seychelles Debt Swap. Through a partnership between NatureVest and the Africa region, The Nature Conservancy has agreed to a debt swap in the Republic of Seychelles that will convert a portion of the island nation's foreign debt to investment in conservation and adaptation to climate change. Seychelles is more than 99 percent ocean, and its economy is based almost entirely on tuna and tourism, so protection of marine resources is critical. In addition to funding on the ground conservation and climate adaptation projects, the 31 million dollar investment, a blend of impact capital and philanthropy, will create an endowment to support conservation and adaptation priorities into the future. Borneo Forest for Carbon, Orangutans. The Nature Conservancy's Indonesia program has signed an agreement with a coalition of palm oil, forest plantation and logging companies on the island of Borneoplus the national, provincial and local governments and the Wehea traditional communityto manage 650,000 acres of forests critically important to some 1,000 orangutans. The area is adjacent to the Conservancy's landmark forest carbon project at Berau. The first of its kind collaboration intends to demonstrate that the forest can continue to provide resources for people while protecting habitat for orangutans and other wildlife. Global Carbon Credit Growth. Nature Conservancy supported projects around the world are now generating income for communities and investment in conservation through the trading of carbon credits. Through Carbon Tanzania, members of one of the last hunter gatherer tribes, the Hadza, are now receiving payments for ecosystem services through the sale of certified carbon offset credits. On the Chilean coast, an ecotourism company acquired the first 10,000 certified carbon credits generated at the Conservancy's Valdivian Coastal Reserve. And in northern Australia, a successful fire carbon project at Fish River Station, generating income and jobs for aboriginal communities, has expanded to cover 10 million hectares, about the size of the state of Kentucky. Continue on line 4c.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4c	Continued from line 4b. CITIES Metropolitan New York. Bringing conservation to cities in an increasingly urbanized world. Urban conservation is the newest addition to The Nature Conservancy's global agenda, but many component strategies are being adapted from Conservancy experience elsewhere, and some elements have been under way for decades. New York City offers a glimpse of the role the Conservancy will play in helping cities tap nature to become more livable places, resolve challenges of pollution and climate change, and enable citizens to maintain a connection to nature even in the densest urban centers. North American Cities. The Nature Conservancy established an initial network of 13 U.S. cities to advance the role that nature plays in ensuring urban communities have access to the clean water, healthy trees and resilient coasts needed to thrive. The cities are working together to identify common urban partners, as well strategies that best tap Conservancy skills and can be replicated elsewhere. In Miami, for example, Conservancy staff helped launch Coastal Defense, a geographically tailored decision making tool that examines how coral reefs and mangroves help protect Florida's urban coastal communities. D.C. Storm Water Solutions. The Potomac and Anacostia rivers, which flow through Washington, D.C., are routinely polluted with sewage and storm water runoff containing oils, pesticides, nutrients and sediments. Under Washington's current storm water regulations, all new major development projects must meet storm water retention standards that can be fulfilled, in part, by using off site storm water retention credits. The Nature Conservancy's Maryland and D.C. chapter and the impact investment unit NatureVest are working to cultivate and solidify investment resources and to support Washington's reduction of urban pollution through green infrastructure solutions that restore the city's natural hydrology, allowing rainwater to be absorbed by the soil instead of becoming a pollutant. Hong Kong Youth Engagement. With a goal of inspiring the next generation of conservation leaders, The Nature Conservancy in Hong Kong launched an urban youth engagement program, created with education collaborator Seeds Training. More than 100 students from more than three dozen secondary schools across the city participated in the inaugural Nature Works Hong Kong program. Students work with volunteer advisors from the corporate and nonprofit worlds to create realistic plans to resolve environmental challenges in their communities. Urban Forests and Air Quality. Recognizing the need to understand the science of urban conservation, The Nature Conservancy's new cities program is leading research on the role of nature in urban centers. First up is an analysis of the value of urban trees in improving air quality and mitigating heat islands. The initial phase of the study will be conducted in the United States, where urban air pollution is a serious health threat. Research results could help guide urban planning around the world.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b	The Form 990 is prepared, based on financial statements audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers, and other internally generated information by the Conservancy's Director of Tax Services. The Form is further reviewed by the Conservancy's Internal Audit Department (which provides independent verification of certain information) and members of Senior Management. As outlined in its charter, the Audit Committee then reviews any significant issues or judgments relating to disclosures in the Conservancy's Form 990. Finally, copies are provided to the full Board of Directors for their comment prior to filing with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c	The Nature Conservancy's monitoring and enforcement of its conflicts policy is governed by its Conflict of Interest Standard Operating Procedure ("SOP") which is excerpted as follows: Before engaging in any activity on behalf of the Conservancy, staff must determine (a) whether the activity could give rise to a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest, and, if so, (b) whether the conflict can or should be avoided to protect the best interests of the Conservancy. If it is not reasonably possible to avoid a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest, or it is not in the Conservancy's best interest to do so, staff must determine appropriate strategies to mitigate and manage the potential adverse consequences of the conflict and obtain approval, as described below, prior to engaging in the activity. A conflict of interest exists when an individual who is responsible for acting in the best interests of the Conservancy has another interest or loyalty that could influence or impair, or may appear to influence or impair, the individual's ability to act in the best interests of the Conservancy. As used throughout the SOP, the terms "conflict" and "conflict of interest" include: 1. actual conflicts of interest; 2. potential conflicts of interest (situations that could become actual conflicts in the future based upon foreseeable events or the passage of time); and 3. perceived conflicts of interest (situations that others could reasonably perceive to be, or have the appearance of, a conflict of interest). Generally, conflicts can arise from relationships between the Conservancy and staff, Board members, trustees and advisors, and the families of all those groups. There are very specific rules regarding who is a "covered person" that are governed, in great part, by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service requirements for public charities. If a conflict of interest is identified which cannot reasonably be avoided or it is not in the best interest of the Conservancy to do so, before proceeding with the proposed activity, review and approval to proceed must be obtained as described in this section. While a request for approval of a proposed course of action is pending or being considered, the transaction or activity cannot proceed. A. Board and Key Employee certifications. All Conservancy Board members and key employees shall annually certify that they have read the Conflicts of Interest Policy and have disclosed all conflicts. B. Supervisor Approval Required. In the case of staff, prior to submission for review and approval to the Conflicts Committee the conflict of interest must be raised to the individual's supervisor and the supervisor must make the determination that he or she (a) wishes to pursue the proposed activity and (b) approves the recommended course of action and proposed mitigation as sufficient. Signature on the Approval form indicates this approval. Regional level approval also is required. C. Conflicts Committee Review Required. The Conflicts Committee reviews and makes determinations about conflicts of interest involving the Conservancy, unless excepted by this SOP. See Conflicts of Interest for the Conflicts Committee charter, meeting schedule and list of Committee members.
