Conservation Lands
|
| The unique geological formation of Cape Cod with
a single source aquifer and its fragile fresh and saltwater ecosystems requires good
stewardship of the land. Currently over 580 acres of upland, beach, pond area and marsh
are in the Chatham Conservation Foundation’s inventory of protected lands. The
Foundation either owns title to the land or a Conservation Restriction on the use of the
land. Parcels vary from large expansive,
easily accessible properties to small fractions-of-an-acre parcels where access is
prohibited. All are important achievements in the pursuit of preserving open space. |
