Scenic Easements: A Tool to Conserve America the Beautiful,
Scenic America, 2005
Visual: Scenic Easements
This publication is intended to promote scenic conservation by encouraging the routine inclusion of scenic protection in general purpose conservation easements, as well as the establishment of stand-alone scenic easements. With this publication, Scenic America hopes to ensure that the best possible information on scenic protection though easements is available to landowners; land trusts; and Federal, State, and local agencies. To this end, the Scenic Easements Action Guide provides a history of their use, reviews types of scenic resources currently protected by easements, and discusses special considerations for drafting scenic easements. NOTE: Scenic Easements: A Tool to Conserve America the Beautiful is not intended to be a comprehensive guide on technical aspects of conservation easements.
