Description
Abstract
The feature class represents the individual parcels that were purchased  by the District as Conservation  Easements.  In addition to the conservation easements flowage way and storage easements adjacent to District property are also present in this layer.

Purpose
For mapping of the parcels that make up the conservation easement and provide historical reference of the acquisitions made for these conservation easements.  The parcels have been mapped as accurately as possible but are not at or intended to meet Florida statutes for surveys.

Supplementary Information
Boundaries for the parcels are based on COGO of legal descriptions from deeds and surveys provided in the closing of each parcel. In some cases manual adjustments were made to fit adjacent parcels with one another.  Particularly in situations where a parcel adjoined one with COGO metes and bound description from a survey.   QA information for each parcel is included  in the  field attributes.   On contractor mapped parcels additional information is available including traverses in the original delivered geodatabase feature class.   Parcels were reprojected from Stateplane NAD83 East to UTM HARN zone 17N  by District staff.  NOTE: the different  scale factors associated with the transformation of data from  State Plane to UTM coordinate system may cause differences in the total acres calculated for each parcel.  In most cases this difference is negligable but may exceed 0.1% on large tracts of land.
