<div style='text-align:Left;font-size:12pt'><div><div><p><span>The Stewardship Lands Inventory (SLI) Program is conducted to develop strategies to monitor, adaptively manage, and ensure compliance of NRCS easements enrolled in the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program - Agricultural Land Easement (ACEP-ALE), Agricultural Conservation Easement Program - Wetland Reserve Easement (ACEP-WRE), Emergency Wetlands Reserve Program (EWRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Grasslands Reserve Program (GRP), Healthy Forests Reserve program (HFRP), Farm and Ranch Lands Protection Program (FRPP), Emergency Watershed Program - Floodplain Easements (EWP-FPE), Other Stewardship Lands (OSL), and Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). Within each easement, data is collected on land cover and use, soil erosion, wetlands issues, and characteristics of other natural resources. The national Easement dataset, Easement Boundaries, is an aggregate layer of conservation easements received from each state, used to identify, monitor, and enhance the spatial accuracy of restoration program polygons. Easements Centroids are centroid points derived from each Easement Boundary.</span></p><p><span> </span></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Disclaimer</span><span>: The spatial easement boundaries are not a representation of the legal easement boundary and should not be used for any purpose beyond general planning.</span></p><p><span /></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'>NEST Data Date: </span><span>2020424</span></p><p><span /></p><p><span style='font-weight:bold;'>Purpose: </span><span>Collecting geospatial data is required as part of the easement monitoring and management responsibilities to protect the Federal investment.
