Environment, Conservation and Wildlife Organizations
NAICS 813312 · United States · 2022 edition
This U.S. industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in promoting the preservation and protection of the environment and wildlife. Establishments in this industry address issues, such as clean air and water; global warming; conserving and developing natural resources, including land, plant, water, and energy resources; and protecting and preserving wildlife and endangered species. These organizations may solicit contributions and offer memberships to support these causes.
Start the review with directors and officers liability.
For Environment, Conservation and Wildlife Organizations, the saved research highlights directors and officers liability, volunteer liability, event liability. Confirm how these arise in the actual operation, what controls are used and whether additional services change the proposed coverage.
Questions to ask
- Does the organization own, lease, or manage any land, trails, conservation easements, or nature preserves open to the public?
- Are there any wildlife rehabilitation, animal care, or live animal programs — and is there public access to those animals?
- What is the breakdown of paid staff versus volunteers, and what activities do volunteers perform?
- How frequently does the organization hold public events, and do any involve alcohol service or significant crowd sizes?
- What is the organization's annual budget, and how significant is grant funding relative to membership dues and donations?
- Has the organization experienced any prior D&O, employment practices, or liability claims?
- Do staff or volunteers regularly use personal vehicles for organizational purposes?
- Does the organization collect, store, or process donor payment card or personal data online?

Day-to-day operations may include grant writing, membership drives, public awareness campaigns, lobbying or regulatory comment, donor events, field surveys, and — in some cases — management of conservation land, wildlife rehabilitation, or nature preserves. Staff may be entirely paid, entirely volunteer, or a combination.
