Governance Explanations

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 11B

“All tax filing, financial reviews, and audits are reviewed and approved by the board prior to filing of the form 990.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 12C

“Disclosure in the organization should be made to the chief executive officer (or if she or he is the one with the conflict, then to the board chair), who shall bring the matter to the attention of the board. The board shall determine whether a conflict exists and in the case of an existing conflict, whether the contemplated transaction may be authorized as just, fair and reasonable to the organization. The decision of the board on these matters will rest in their sole discretion, and their concern must be the welfare of the organization and the advancement of its purpose.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 15A

“The board of directors approves salaries as part of our annual budget approval process. Wave farm inc.'s salaries remain extremely modest in comparison to norms for the field. Field surveys such as those conducted by the new york nonprofit coordinating committee serve as a reliable representation of what average new york nonprofit salary ranges are at any given time.”

Form 990, Page 6, Part VI, Line 19

“The governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements are made available to the public upon request.”
