Continued on Schedule OCPC conserves land, restores and enhances wildlife habitat, and educates the public on the value and importance of protecting coastal prairies, wetlands, farms, and ranches. 0 0 1775194 Land Conservation - The Coastal Prairie Conservancy (CPC, formerly known as Katy Prairie Conservancy) protects coastal prairie, wetlands, and agricultural lands in the following ways: acquisition of conservation lands at fair market value, acquisition of conservation lands through a bargain sale arrangement, receipt of donated conservation lands to CPC, receipt of donated trade lands to CPC, donation of conservation easements to CPC, and purchase of development rights on conservation lands in southeast Texas. Conservation lands are held in permanent trust and are maintained for the benefit of both the wildlife that inhabit the lands and the public who enjoy visiting CPC's preserves. 488233 993834 Land Stewardship - CPC monitors its conservation easement lands annually to ensure that the goals and objectives of the easement are followed and that the land retains its conservation values. CPC establishes baseline data on all its easements so it can track changes over time through regular monitoring protocols. CPC develops detailed management plans for its fee-owned properties to remove invasive species (including Chinese Tallow, McCartney Rose, feral hogs and other feral animals) and to improve the conservation values of these lands by restoring or creating wetlands and enhancing and restoring native grasslands. 224574 659875 Land Management & Restoration - During 2003-2004, CPC's Board of Directors purchased a majority interest in the historic Warren Ranch, a 6,000-acre working cattle ranch. It's part of CPC's mission to protect the unique scenic, historic, and natural resources on the Katy Prairie. Well-managed farmland shelters wildlife, supplies scenic open space, and helps filter impurities from our air and water. Warren Ranch's agricultural lands offer many other benefits: preservation of natural resources; outdoor recreation, including bird watching, hunting, and nature tours; improved flood protection; economic development through eco-tourism; enhanced wildlife habitat; recharge zones for the area's aquifers; educational field trips for area youth; local food sources; and research opportunities for colleges in ecology and land management. 193989 Public Outreach - CPC works with various governmental entities to track and monitor public policy issues that may affect CPC's lands, including major thoroughfare and road plans, flood control initiatives, and conservation easement tax incentives. CPC offers events, tours, and programs to enable the public to enjoy different aspects of its protected lands. In addition, CPC also hosts small group tours (working in cooperation with other conservation entities and area naturalists) as well as field trips for young people. Interpretive signs and field guides enhance the visitor experience, and expanded outreach and marketing efforts through CPC's website and electronic newsletter broaden audience reach. CPC has also developed programming at area schools and parks to make people more aware of the importance of prairies to the region. CPC also provides extensive virtual programming when visiting its preserves is not possible. 193989 2681990 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 56 0 1 11 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 11 11 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 X X X Mary Anne Piacentini 7135236135 5615 Kirby Drive Ste 867 Houston TX 77005 Sam Hix Chairman 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Michael Huffmaster Vice Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Iris Poteet Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Foster Carter Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Andres Cabada Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Robin Fredrickson Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kirk Johnson Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Jubin Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Molly McBirney Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Juliana de Vasconcellos Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Forrest Wylie Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Anne Piacentini President & CEO 40.00 X 175230 0 3505 Elisa Donovan VP & General Counsel 40.00 X 116116 0 12654 Ali Dodson Development Director 40.00 X 101208 0 12356 392554 0 28515 3 0 1 0 0 223100 425786 4051233 1819900 4700119 Stream Mitigation fees 110000 871719 871719 Warren Ranch income 110000 520388 520388 Other program revenue 990009 122115 122115 1514222 61778 61778 12447 12447 139487 0 139487 139487 139487 58048 15339 59549 20181 -1501 -4842 -6343 -6343 49700 223100 57266 -7566 -7566 6414144 1653709 0 60316 178735 132265 32172 14298 524479 343394 92758 88327 10090 6552 1717 1821 65082 42115 10362 12605 51674 34557 9127 7990 3350 2850 500 108398 108398 15000 15000 20759 20759 318958 309864 1400 7694 1453 983 470 54151 42449 5213 6489 105431 83790 12290 9351 15815 15304 84 427 16359 15036 731 592 133209 133209 110595 91515 19080 34556 23297 6159 5100 Conservation expenses 1090000 1090000 Ranching expenses 224574 224574 Repairs and maintenance 72120 45755 22581 3784 Permits and fees 24791 19192 4052 1547 10289 10289 3189868 2681990 347383 160495 2325086 1869843 1191941 1475184 119637 411911 7698 888207 36180534 1436430 32525607 34744104 1094169 1392996 1576037 1940086 76917 45881 38917092 42768212 117141 152372 5000772 5000772 76917 45881 5194830 5199025 X 23245689 26437151 10476573 11132036 33722262 37569187 38917092 42768212 3224276 622649 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 1197755 3910515 7453026 3561490 4700119 20822905 1197755 3910515 7453026 3561490 4700119 20822905 1582162 19240743 22917 14999 10677 25064 74225 147882 20970787 5098721 0.91750 0.87880 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 15000 0 0 15000 0 Part II-B, Line 1: In 2023, CPC promoted the passage of a new farm bill, supported several renewable energy bills, opposed changes to the Clean Water Act that would weaken the protection of wetlands, and supported the creation of a fund to support land protection and park development activities throughout the state of Texas.

CPC communicates and/or meets with landowners annually to discuss the findings of our monitoring visits. Part II, Line 9: Conservation easements are comprised of listed rights or restrictions over specific acreage that are conveyed by a property owner to the Conservancy in perpetuity in order to preserve the conservation values of their lands. Costs to acquire conservation easements where title to the properties is not held by the Conservancy are recorded as expenses in the statement of activities. Part V, Line 4: CPC intends to utilize the endowment funds for the perpetual maintenance of the stream mitigation bank property. A portion of the interest from the endowment fund (up to 4% annually) will be provided to assist with the management and maintenance of the bank, including but not limited to fence repair and replacement, invasive species control, erosion control, prescribed burns, etc. The remaining interest earned as well as any of the 4% that is not needed for management and maintenance of the bank will be rolled back into the fund to be used for extraordinary maintenance issues as needed. Should the stream mitigation bank property be damaged through no fault of CPC, the principal from the endowment fund can be used to replace the conservation values of the bank up to the amount of available monies in the endowment fund.
