Property Monitors:

Property monitoring is great for anyone who enjoys visiting new properties and ensuring the conservation easements are upheld. Property monitoring is done during daytime hours in spring, summer, and fall.

Property Monitoring includes:

1. Contact conservation easements land owners prior to visit to schedule a monitoring visit.
2. Visit the office to pick up the property’s monitoring binder.
3. Use directions found in the binder to travel to the property.
4. After arriving on the property, hike and record required information in the Monitoring Report found in the property binder.
5. After leaving return your signed copy of the monitoring report to our office and email any photos you have to muskingumriver@gmail.com.
