Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Pt VI, Line 11B

“Process used to review 990: The board president, bookkeeper and appropriate officers review the information before signing and transmitting to the IRS. If there are any questions, we contact the CPA who prepared the 990.”

Pt VI, Line 15A

“Process for determining compensation: The board determines the pay scale based on industry standards in our rural location. The decision is noted in the board minutes when this takes place. The board hires the Executive Director. All other positions are hired, reviewed, etc. by the E.D. If a position is not included in the annual budget, board approval is needed to make that hire.”

Pt VI, Line 19

“How we make information available to the public: Newsletter, Annual Report, Website E-Newsletter, in office and by phone.”

IRS990/Desc0In 2024, EPIC was active in court, including challenging a number of illegal logging activities that are imperiling threatened northern spotted owls, the Shasta River safe harbor program that is imperiling federally threatened coho salmon, and the ill-conceived highway widening through Richardson Grove State Park. Because of advocacy from EPIC and allies, CAL FIRE opted to update the Jackson Demonstration State Forests management plan early before the existing one expires, and also has not approved any new timber harvest plans for more than two years.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Process used to review 990: The board president, bookkeeper and appropriate officers review the information before signing and transmitting to the IRS. If there are any questions, we contact the CPA who prepared the 990.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1Process for determining compensation: The board determines the pay scale based on industry standards in our rural location. The decision is noted in the board minutes when this takes place. The board hires the Executive Director. All other positions are hired, reviewed, etc. by the E.D. If a position is not included in the annual budget, board approval is needed to make that hire.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2How we make information available to the public: Newsletter, Annual Report, Website E-Newsletter, in office and by phone.
