This is a sample form for use in transactions involving easements, an Environmental Restriction Easement. Requires a specific property to be subject to covenants, restrictions and easements as part of an order from federal court litigation. A District of Columbia Environmental Restriction Easement is a legal agreement designed to protect and preserve important environmental features or resources within the District. This easement restricts certain actions or activities on a property to ensure the conservation, restoration, or enhancement of the natural or cultural environment. One type of District of Columbia Environmental Restriction Easement is the Natural Resource Easement. This type of easement focuses on the protection and preservation of critical natural resources, such as wetlands, forests, rivers, and wildlife habitats. It aims to prevent activities that may harm these resources, such as land development, deforestation, or pollution. Another type is the Historic Preservation Easement, which concentrates on safeguarding historically significant buildings or sites. This easement ensures that the property's cultural or architectural value remains intact and prevents any alterations or demolitions that may diminish its historical importance. Additionally, there are Agricultural Conservation Easements that aim to preserve farmland and agricultural landscapes. These easements help maintain the agricultural productivity of the land and prevent its conversion for non-agricultural purposes. They may include restrictions on land development, subdivision, or commercial activities that could threaten the viability of farming operations. To establish a District of Columbia Environmental Restriction Easement, the property owner voluntarily enters into an agreement with a qualified governmental or non-profit organization, known as the easement holder. The easement holder is responsible for monitoring compliance with the easement terms and ensuring the long-term protection of the conserved features.
