Impact Statement from Nonprofit

Conservation Success

In its 15-year history, CCALT has developed an excellent track record in successfully completing transactions. As of December 2010, CCALT has protected more than 370,000 acres. Several success stories can be seen on our website at www.ccalt.org.

CCALT has an annual operating budget of about $500,000 and protects $20-40M in real estate every year. Its lean operations mean we are able to protect 50,000 acres of land for only $10/acre of organizational expense.

In addition to personal experience in ranching and agriculture, our Board of Directors and staff combine legal, financial, and real estate expertise with practical experience in land conservation. CCALT’s volunteers and board members have played key roles in developing state laws and policies concerning conservation easements and in developing the Colorado Coalition of Land Trusts’ Standards and Practices for the Stewardship of Conservation Easements. CCALT fields frequent inquiries and provides advice to land trusts across the country on the stewardship of agricultural lands.
