Today, a significant land acquisition is rarely accomplished without at least one private and one public sector participant. This book presents a detailed, inside look at public/private partnerships. Through in-depth case studies written by participants in land-saving projects, this book provides valuable insight into when and why partnerships are necessary, what these partnerships can accomplish, and how to arrange and manage them effectively.Land Conservation Through Public/Private Partnerships demonstrates the broad array of circumstances under which cooperation between the public and private sectors can significantly improve land conservation efforts. This book is essential reading for anyone concerned with the preservation of our rapidly diminishing open landscapes.The book covers each type of public/private organization - nonprofit, federal agency, or state and local government - with case studies that detail the partnerships which specific groups have formed. Examples of participating organizations include The Nature Conservancy, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the North American Waterfowl Management Plan, and the states of Rhode Island and New York. A final section explores the financial arrangements that make these programs work.
