“The form 990 was prepared by the outside accountants and reviewed by the officers of peer. The entire board received a copy of the 990 prior to filing the return.”
“A board member or officer who at any time believes that he or she has, or may have, a conflict of interest immediately discloses the existence and nature of such conflict to the board of directors and to the members of considering a proposed transaction or issue.After disclosure of the actual or possible conflict of interest, the board member leaves the board meeting while the conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining board members decide if a conflict of interest exists. If the Board determines that a conflict of interest exists, or may exist, the affected board member abstains from any action related, in any fashion, to the interest and recuses himself or herself from any portion of any proceedings at which action is considered or taken regarding the interest. Any doubt regarding whether a conflict of interest exists is resolved in factor of disclosure, abstention and absence.”
“The board determines the executive director's salary, increases, and bonuses (if given). Comparability data and documentation are used in the determination process. The most recent review process took place June 2017.”
“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
“OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Membership and outreach: helps peer employee members expose and remedy environmental problems within their public agencies. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Scientist Protection/Education: PUBLIC AGENCY SCIENTISTS ARE UNDER GROWING POLITICAL PRESSURE TO ALTER, DILUTE, OR SUPPRESS THEIR FINDINGS ON ISSUES OF ECONOMIC IMPACT OR CONTROVERSY. PEER PROVIDES LEGAL DEFENSE TO SCIENTISTS TARGETED BECAUSE THEIR WORK IS POLITICALLY INCONVENIENT, EXPOSES SCIENTIFIC FRAUD AND MANIPULATION BY POLITICAL MANAGERS AND SEEKS TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE, AND PIONEERS NEW LEGAL PATHS TO DEBUNK POLITICAL SCIENCE SUBSTITUTING FOR REAL SCIENCE.”
“As of September 30, 2018 PEER has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The tax years subject to examination by the taxing authorities are the years ended September 30, 2015 through 2017.”
