Murdoch Family Signs Easement to Protect Water Quality and Wildlife Habitat near Elkins




We are proud to announce a new conservation easement with landowners John and Betsy Murdoch, protecting a 40-acre property in the rapidly developing area of Elkins, AR, in the Beaver Lake Watershed. The project supports NWALT’s mission to conserve land that provides significant ecological and public benefits, such as water quality protection and wildlife habitat preservation in the Beaver Lake Watershed.

 

The Murdoch property, a blend of young forest and sloped oak-hickory forest, contributes to the preservation of critical natural habitats in an area facing high development pressure. The land’s forested sections and historic pastures play a vital role in sustaining biodiversity, with the property serving as habitat for endangered species.  This easement aligns with the conservation priorities of the Beaver Lake Watershed Protection Plan.

 

Betsy Murdoch, the property owner, shared her perspective on the conservation easement: “It is the perfect hope for preserving the habitats of all the creatures and plants we have been privileged to live alongside for over 30 years.”


She continued, “We are forever grateful knowing we have done our best and this one small spot won’t be turned into a subdivision or worse but will continue to provide a green space for all. The ‘critters’ need us to leave them some space. This is the least we can do. The upper watersheds capture rain for the booming high demand and rapid growth in our area. This is the only water supply we have, Beaver Lake.”


 “The conservation of this property is an important step in safeguarding water quality and natural resources in the Beaver Lake watershed. Protecting places like the Murdoch land is essential in preserving the health of our environment and the quality of life for communities that depend on these natural resources,” said Grady Spann, Executive Director of NWALT.

 

“We are grateful to the Murdochs for their dedication to creating a legacy of conservation,” Spann added. “Their commitment helps to protect clean water, preserve wildlife habitat, and maintain the scenic beauty of Northwest Arkansas.”
