Models for Creating and Managing Conservation Easements

Shaped by numerous cycles of practitioner review and continuing user feedback, no easement document in the nation has undergone greater public scrutiny and testing than the Model Grant of Conservation Easement and Declaration of Covenants with Commentary.

The Model Conservation Easement Donation Agreement spells out the terms for donating and accepting easements and related contributions.

The Model Consent, Non-Disturbance, and Subordination Agreement with Commentary protects easements from bank foreclosures and is necessary for charitable tax deduction.

The Model Stewardship Funding Covenant structures and help guarantees payments for easement stewardship.

The other eight WeConservePA model documents presented in this section all support other aspects of conservation easement establishment and management.
