Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Other

“Grant Process The foundation uses an industry based steering group to oversee the grant process for the hydro fellowship and research award programs. The steering group is responsible for setting selection criteria, reviewing applications, and selecting the class of fellows and researchers. The students are then assigned mentors from the foundation and within the hydropower industry who guide them through their research until their work is presented at one of the national industry conferences. All financial assistance given to the fellows and researchers, which includes tuition allowances, and some medical and living stipends, are administered by the executive director and program director.”

Pt VI, Line 2

“The executive director and the program director have a family relationship. All payments to these two individuals must be approved by the president of the board or his/her designee, who are independent and not family members of the executive director and the program director.”

Pt VI, Line 11B

“The Form 990 is reviewed by board members prior to filing.”

Pt VI, Line 19

“The organization makes its governing documents, financial statements and Form 990 available upon request.”

Pt VI, Line 12C

“The organization internally monitors compliance with the written conflict of interest policy.”

IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Procedures for monitoring the use of grant funds in the US The foundation records all transactions on QuickBooks and compares them to the grant budget and assistance agreement. Once the month-end spending report is created by the bookkeeper and reviewed by the program director a reimbursement request is submitted to the granting agency by the program director with the supporting documents detailing how the funds were spend and from which cost category the funds were spent.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Grant Process The foundation uses an industry based steering group to oversee the grant process for the hydro fellowship and research award programs. The steering group is responsible for setting selection criteria, reviewing applications, and selecting the class of fellows and researchers. The students are then assigned mentors from the foundation and within the hydropower industry who guide them through their research until their work is presented at one of the national industry conferences. All financial assistance given to the fellows and researchers, which includes tuition allowances, and some medical and living stipends, are administered by the executive director and program director.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The executive director and the program director have a family relationship. All payments to these two individuals must be approved by the president of the board or his/her designee, who are independent and not family members of the executive director and the program director.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2The Form 990 is reviewed by board members prior to filing.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3The organization makes its governing documents, financial statements and Form 990 available upon request.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4The organization internally monitors compliance with the written conflict of interest policy.
