Governance Explanations

Members or stockholder classes and rights Part VI line 6

“OCEESA has four membership categories: 1. regular, 2. life, 3. student, and 4. honorary members. The Executive Council reviews and approves applications. Regular, life, and student members pay dues as outlined in the By-Laws. Voting is limited to members in good standing, with one vote each, as described in Article IV. The Board of Directors, with 12 members (plus a 13th if the Presidents directorship expires), manages the Association when the general membership isnt in session. The Executive Council, consisting of the President, Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer, and immediate past President, handles administrative functions.”

Member election for additional members Part VI line 7A

“Active Members include Regular and Life Members who have paid current dues. Newly elected Directors start their three-year term on January 1, with election timelines adjustable by the Executive Council if needed. Members can vote for up to four Director candidates. Officers, elected from among the Directors for a two-year term, start their terms simultaneously. Any Officer vacancy during the term will be filled by the Board.”

Governing body decisions Part VI line 7B

“Members vote for members of Board of Directors, which manages the administration of the Association.”

Form 990 governing body review Part VI line 11

“A draft copy of the form 990 is provided to the executive director and board for review.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0This project focuses on the concept of a circular economy for sustainable materials management by developing a recovery method of copper ions from plating waste copper nitrate solution to obtain copper oxalate and to recover nitric acid. Both lab-scale and pilot-scale studies will determine the scale-up factor for full-scale design and theTaguchi method will be employed to optimize size, yield, and crystallization kinetics. By using this effectively copper recovery approach, both energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions can be saved compared to extracting copper from natural sources.
