CLERC secured funds and initiated environmental review for over 900 acres of forest health restoration activities through CAL FIREs Forest Health Program. Community meetings were held and GIS data updated to facilitate the first update of the Lake County Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) since 2009. CLERC formed regional partnerships with conservation groups in neighboring counties to secure funding and implement forest health and wildfire resilience landowner assistance programs including the North Bay Forest Improvement Program (NBFIP), the Regional Forest and Fire Capacity Program (RFFC), and the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). In support of these activities, CLERC hired a Fire and Forestry Program Manager, Project Coordinator, and hosted an AmeriCorps CivicSpark Fellow. CLERC worked with partners across all sectors including federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as private citizens and nonprofit organizations. 32524 The Clear Lake Environmental Research Center Lab (CLERC Lab) has taken on more clients, in particular the Lake County Farm Bureau and its Irrigated Lands Regulatory Program. This Program widened our scope of work to include water sampling and field monitoring, and led to another client in a neighboring county to use our service. The CLERC Lab physically moved to the Carnegie Library in Lakeport, a much larger space and one requiring complete furnishing to be ergonomically sound and environmentally clean for the purposes of environmental analysis. In order to maintain the CLERC Labs accreditation certification we successfully completed a third party assessment and the required proficiency tests for the standard methods being used. The CLERC Lab is currently accredited for microbiology of drinking water and wastewater. 528189 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 4 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 5 3 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X X Teresa Mayorga 7078500650 PO Box 636 Lakeport CA 95453 William Evans President 40.00 0.00 X 57708 0 3949 Teresa Mayorga Secty/Treasurer 36.00 0.00 X 45663 0 5896 Carolyn Ruttan Director 40.00 0.00 X 13488 0 0 David Adam Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Peggie King Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jacquelyn Parsons Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 116859 9845 0 false false false 0 47 511516 51669 563232 Program Service Revenue 56082 56082 56082 381 381 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 619695 56082 381 0 0 0 0 71196 62900 8296 0 58107 35235 22872 0 10184 10184 10194 7706 2488 0 0 2243 2243 0 0 0 0 0 3127 2715 412 586 218 368 0 13517 12554 963 0 0 3279 3279 220 220 0 0 9891 9891 Outside contract services 365145 365145 Supplies 11574 11574 Laboratory Supplies 10046 10046 Certifications 6633 6633 0 575942 528189 47753 0 3846 12556 262251 854529 2716 2528 0 0 0 0 800 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1200 269613 870813 4419 40276 256633 778223 20000 20000 281052 838499 X -11439 -745909 778223 -11439 32314 269613 870813 43753 X false false false X 6006 97975 563232 667213 0 0 6006 97975 563232 667213 0 667213 8 146 381 535 0 16233 20421 56082 92736 760484 0.87740 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Chris Ruttan Dir Spouse Lab Costs X 20000 20000 false true true 20000 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process Board of Directors reads and reviews Form 990 prior to filing.
