EIN 68-0201338 • 501(c)4 • Berkeley, CA

Profile

Grassroots outreach and education of the public on California forest protection. We called for letters and calls to CalFIRE demanding that the agency impose a moratorium on all logging at Jackson Demonstration State Forest until a new management plan for the forest is written. Advocacy for ecologically sound federal rules to safeguard mature and old-growth forests in the wake of President Biden's Executive Order 14072. We also generated calls and letters to federal officials urging strengthening of the draft rules after they were unveiled. We called for citizen communications in opposition to the so-called "Save Our Sequoias Act" (H.R. 8168), which would have weakened forest-protection laws. Organized calls to the Napa County Board of Supervisors urging them to use the county's climate-protective policies and instruments to prevent destruction of oak woodlands and watersheds.

Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11B

“Prior to filing, Form 990 is sent to the members of the governing body for review. The draft Form 990 received from our CPA is reviewed by the Executive Director and any questions he may have are resolved in consultation with our CPA, legal counsel and other outside experts in exempt-organization tax reporting.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12C

“Individual Board members may not participate in the voting of any matter before the Board in which the member has a material direct personal interest which conflicts with the member's role as an objective governor. Such conflicts include instances in which the director is an active volunteer or staff person of any organization or company and has a substantive interest in an action by the Board regarding the organization's programs and/or campaigns.When such a conflict arises, a member must declare to the Board his or her conflict at the onset of action by the Board, if another member perceives a conflict, or as soon as he or she becomes aware of the conflict. The member may then choose to recuse himself or herself. If the member chooses not to recuse, the full Board will vote regarding whether or not to allow the member to participate in the relevant decision. Board members with a conflict of interest may participate in the deliberations but may not vote on the issue. The vote may be taken without the member with the conflict of interest present.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19

“Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are all available to the public via copies provided upon request.”

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Prior to filing, Form 990 is sent to the members of the governing body for review. The draft Form 990 received from our CPA is reviewed by the Executive Director and any questions he may have are resolved in consultation with our CPA, legal counsel and other outside experts in exempt-organization tax reporting.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Individual Board members may not participate in the voting of any matter before the Board in which the member has a material direct personal interest which conflicts with the member's role as an objective governor. Such conflicts include instances in which the director is an active volunteer or staff person of any organization or company and has a substantive interest in an action by the Board regarding the organization's programs and/or campaigns.When such a conflict arises, a member must declare to the Board his or her conflict at the onset of action by the Board, if another member perceives a conflict, or as soon as he or she becomes aware of the conflict. The member may then choose to recuse himself or herself. If the member chooses not to recuse, the full Board will vote regarding whether or not to allow the member to participate in the relevant decision. Board members with a conflict of interest may participate in the deliberations but may not vote on the issue. The vote may be taken without the member with the conflict of interest present.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are all available to the public via copies provided upon request.
