The ConservationTools.org website by the PA Land Trust Association has added new resources to help local land trusts deal with liability issues.

Accidents happen and when they do, claims for personal injury or property damage sometimes follow.

Defending lawsuits is expensive and time-consuming. The defense may be ultimately successful and covered by insurance, but the costs are ultimately passed on to the insured through higher premiums.

Properly designed release of liability forms signed by a volunteer or participant in an activity can reduce liability risks of the organizing or hosting organization.

Visit the ConservationTools.org website for dozens of other guides and articles to help land trusts and other organizations manage property-related issues.

The 2020 PA Land Conservation Conference will be held in Gettysburg April 1-3.
