BELGRADE — The Belgrade Regional Conservation alliance is applying for accreditation, which involves a public comment period.
The land trust accreditation program recognizes land conservation organizations that meet national quality standards for protecting natural places and working lands.
The Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance, conducts an extensive review of each applicant’s policies and programs. Accreditation would ensure that the Belgrade Regional Conservation Alliance practices meet or exceed the nationally recognized best practices.
The public can submit signed written comments related to how the Belgrade Regional Conservation Alliance complies with national quality standards. These standards address the ethical and technical operation of a land trust. For the full list of standards, more information or to submmit a comment, visit www.landtrustaccreditation.org. Comments can also be emailed to info@landtrustaccreditation.org, faxed to 518-587-3183, or mailed to Land Trust Accreditation Commission, Attn: Public Comments, 36 Phila Street, Suite 2, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.
The deadline for submitting comments is May 20.
