“The auditor prepares the 990, the financial officer reviews it, the executive director submits it to the treasurer and both of them review and approve it. In addition, the entire board of directors receives the 990 before the auditor files it.”
“Annually at the last board meeting of the fiscal year, each board member submits a conflict of interest disclosure form, which the governance committee reviews. Any actual or apparent conflict is discussed with that board member, including the need for recusal.”
“The board of directors determines the compensation of the executive director annually following a performance review conducted by the governance committee. Compensation is determined following review of comparability data, including the compensation and benefits survey published annually by the Center for Nonprofit Management.

Baykeepers field investigators and scientists patrol the Bay to identify polluters and uncover threats. Our lawyers and policy advocates hold polluters accountable and require government agencies to strengthen laws. Baykeeper investigates pollution. We conduct regular patrols of San Francisco Bay on our motorized boat, and we partner with volunteer small plane pilots and drone operators to patrol from the sky. On these patrols, we discover new pollution sources and monitor the progress of polluters we have required to stop polluting. We also investigate tips from Bay Area residents who contact our pollution hotline about polluting activities. Baykeeper stops polluters. We stop pollution from industrial facilities, sewage treatment plants, and city runoffincluding toxic chemicals, raw sewage, crude oil, coal and trash. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc | 0 | Baykeeper strengthens laws. We advocate for stronger laws and stricter regulations to protect San Francisco Bay from polluters and other harm. Baykeeper makes the Bay more resilient. We fight for better protection for the Bay from sea level rise, such as making wiser use of the Bays sand and sediment to create more resilient shorelines. We also fight against unwise shoreline development that will make Bay Area communities more vulnerable to flooding caused by sea level rise. Baykeeper has won critical victories at the national, regional and local level for San Francisco Bay. Since 1989, we have compelled the cleanup of hundreds of refineries, chemical companies, industrial operations, landfills and city streets; kept hundreds of millions of gallons of untreated sewage out of the Bay and local neighborhoods; secured the cleanup and removal of the Ghost Fleet, 57 decaying surplus military ships that had poisoned the San Francisco Bay ecosystem for decades; |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc | 0 | won federal court victories to regulate pesticides, invasive species and vessel pollution; and been recognized as a national leader in oil spill prevention and response. We have a staff of eleven with scientific and legal expertise, a board of directors with a breadth of experience with the Bay, an expert advisory board, a team of volunteer boat skippers and the only pollution patrol boat regularly monitoring and investigating polluters in the Bay. And, Baykeeper helped found the Waterkeeper Alliance, an international network of on-the-water activists, led by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. There are now more than 300 Waterkeeper organizations and affiliates around the world. Baykeeper holds the Baykeeper trademark and licenses its use by other organizations. To avoid confusion, Baykeeper operates primarily under the name San Francisco Baykeeper. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc | 0 | Baykeeper incorporated as a nonprofit, public benefit corporation in California on January 23, 1987, as the San Francisco Bay-Delta Preservation Association, and became Baykeeper in May 1989, the fourth Waterkeeper organization in the country. For 30 years, standing up to constant threats and major polluters, Baykeeper has been a fierce champion for San Francisco Bay. For more information, please visit us online at baykeeper.org. |
