Every easement-holding land trust should have a policy to help guide responsible consideration of potential amendments to grants of conservation easement. WeConservePA produced this one-page Model Policy for Conservation Easement Amendment, together with its expansive “Guidelines for Conservation Easement Amendments, Waivers, and Letters of Interpretation,” to assist land trusts in establishing or updating such a policy and, most importantly, acting responsibly and productively in their easement decision-making.
