        <idAbs>&lt;div style='text-align:Left;'&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This dataset contains the boundaries for conservation easements in Middlesex County, Virginia. A conservation easement is a voluntary agreement between a landowner and a public agency or private land trust that permanently limits future development of the land to protect its conservation values. When landowners elect to donate or sell an easement on their property, the terms are negotiated between the landowner and the organization that will hold the easement (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a target='_blank' href='https://dof.virginia.gov/land-water-protection/farm-and-forestland-conservation/conservation-easements/' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'&gt;&lt;span&gt;Source&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span&gt;). Clipped from the VA Department of Conservation and Recreation layer as of May 18, 2026.
