Montana Electric Cooperatives'

“The organization's members are made up of the rural electric cooperatives throughout the state of montana”

“Each electric cooperative who is a member of montana electric cooperatives' association elects one director to the board of directors for montana electric cooperatives' association.”

“A copy of the 990 is provided to the chief executive officer and the executive officers of the organization (president, vice president, secretary/treasurer) for review prior to filing.”

“As per adopted board policy, the ceo and accountant regularly monitor transactions for conflicts of interest. Any conflicts found are required to be disclosed to the president of the board of directors. The president then determines if no action is needed, full disclosure to all board members is needed, asks the person involved to recuse themselves from participation in related discussions, or asks the person to resign from their position with the company.”

“The executive committee of the board of directors deliberates on compensation. Comparative data from national rural electric cooperatives' association information is used.”
