A conservation easement (CE) is a voluntary legal agreement between a landowner and a ‘qualified organization’ to protect, conserve or enhance environmental, natural, scenic or aesthetic value. The landowner is the easement donor, and a qualified organization can be the Government of Alberta, provincial government agency, local government body or registered organization that meets certain criteria.

Conservation easements help to preserve agriculture, ecological and cultural values, and the beauty of Alberta. Each easement can be tailored to the landowner’s needs through discussion between the landholder and the qualified organization, as long as the conservation is reached.
