“Mark T. Sittloh is the nephew of Dr. Robert Bergstrom.”
“The Board of Directors receives a copy of the Form 990 before filing.”
“The Board of Directors constantly makes sure that the conflict of interest policy is followed.”
“Compensation changes for Robert W. Bergstrom, George E. Hays, Mark T. Sittloh, Rama Nemani and Vincent Defrancisci must be voted on and approved by the Board of Directors.”
“Compensation amounts are determined by salary and benefit surveys, wage comparability data, inflationary cost-of-living increases, and merit.”
“Other information regarding the Organization may be available upon request.”
“The Organizations fiscal year was previously for the period January 1st to December 31st. In March 2025, the Organization elected to change its fiscal year to the period January 1st to September 30th. The Internal Revenue Service approved the election to change the Organizations fiscal year to the period January 1st to September 30th. As a result, the Organization has presented its financial statements for the 9-month period ended September 30, 2024.”
“The Bay Area Environmental Institute adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Bay Area Environmental Research Institute has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Institute believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Institutes financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Institute has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest or penalties for uncertain income tax positions. The Institute is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax period in progress.”

| IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | The Bay Area Environmental Institute adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Bay Area Environmental Research Institute has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Institute believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Institutes financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Institute has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest or penalties for uncertain income tax positions. The Institute is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax period in progress. |
