Abstract
Georgians are already using a variety of
tools - regulatory requirements, river basin planning, and governmental purchase of river corridor segments-- to protect the state's rivers. Conservation easements providing
financial incentives for wise stewardship will complement this array. Provisions of this flexible legal tool vary
according to the wishes of the landowner, the natural features of the property and the goals of the land trust involved.
