“Form 990, part vi, section b, line 11b: a draft copy of the 990 is reviewed in detail by the organization before it is finalized. A copy of the final form 990 is then forwarded to all members of the organization's board of directors before it is filed with the internal revenue service. Form 990, part vi, section b, line 12c: each year, every board officer must complete the conflict of interest policy form and submit it to the chairman for review. If a conflict of interest is present, the chair will appoint a committee to determine the specific nature and determine the actions necessary, if any, to ensure the coalition's interests are adequately protected, and impropriety is avoided. Form 990, part vi, section b, line 15: the compensation committee is a standing committee of the energy coalition's board of directors. The committee assists the board in fulfulling its responsibility to oversee the compensation and benefits the coalition provides to its executives and senior management. Form 990, part vi, section c, line 19: the energy coalition's financial statements, conflict of interest policy and governing documents are available for review at the agency's office upon written request. Copies of the documents may be provided upon request if the energy coalition is reimbursed for the cost of the time and materials used to provide those copies. Form 990, part vii, column d board members who are not officers of the coalition receive compensation based on a monthly retainer of $1,890 and quarterly meeting fees of $1,890. Members are also assigned to various standing committees of the board and are compensated for attending meetings of those committees. Members of the audit committee receive $1,290 per meeting attended at the coalition headquarters. Telephonic meetings, when necessary, result in $670 meeting fees. Members of all other committees receive $670 per meeting. Under these arrangements, individual board member compensation will vary based on when a term of office began, committee assignments, and the number of committee meetings. The chairman receives additional compensation compared to regular board members reflecting a substantially greater time commitment. The energy coalition engaged a independent law firm to analyze the reasonableness of the directors' stipends. The firm concluded that the amounts paid to the board members were in fact reasonable, using comparability data and review of the board members' duties. Form 990, part xii, line 2c the organization has not changed its audit committee oversight process. The energy coalition receives much of its funding from grants received on an annual basis from certain utility companies and government entities. The energy coalition does not spend funds in obtaining this funding, therefore, the entity does not have any reportable fundraising expenses.”
