DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURYINTERNAL REVENUE SERVICEOGDEN, UT 84201JUNE 6, 2017RE: LETTER OF EXPLANATION FAILURE TO FILE FORM 990, TAX YEAR 2015TAXPAYER: WILDLIFE CENTER OF THE NORTH COASTEIN: 91-1796246ADDRESS: 89686 HWY 202ASTORIA, OR 97103TAX PERIOD: 2015 ENDING: 12/31/2015TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,I AM WRITING TO YOU TODAY TO EXPLAIN, AS BEST I CAN, OUR FAILURE TO FILE THE FORM 990 FOR TAX YEAR 2015, AND TO REQUEST A WAIVING OF ANY PENALTY FEES ASSOCIATED WITH OUR FAILURE TO FILE.OUR FOUNDER AND LONG-TIME DIRECTOR, SHARNELLE FEE, WHO PREVIOUSLY HANDLED ALL OF OUR TAX FILINGS, PASSED AWAY IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015. UPON HER PASSING, WE HIRED AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR TO HELP US SORT OUT AND TAKE CARE OF THE ADMINISTRATION OF ALL OF OUR BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL TASKS, INCLUDING TO PREPARE AND FILE OUR FORM 990 FOR TAX PERIOD 2015. WE HAD BEEN LED TO BELIEVE THAT THE FORM 990 HAD BEEN FILED, AS WE WERE SUPPLIED WITH A COMPLETED AND SIGNED COPY OF THE PAPERWORK, AND TOLD IT HAD BEEN SUBMITTED IN MAY 2016.LATE IN 2016, WE DISCOVERED THAT THE INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR WORKING FOR US HAD BECOME ILL, AND THAT HER ILLNESS HAD AFFECTED MUCH OF THE WORK SHE'D DONE FOR US, DATING BACK TO THE BEGINNING OF 2016 AND PERHAPS EARLIER. THERE WERE OTHER FINANCIAL FILINGS AND ISSUES, SUCH AS PAYROLL LIABILITIES, THAT SHE THOUGHT SHE HAD FILED AND PAID, BUT THEY WERE NOT. IT WAS ONLY WHEN WORKING WITH A NEW CPA FIRM IN PREPARATION OF FILING TAX PAPERS FOR THE 2016 TAX YEAR, THAT IT WAS DISCOVERED OUR FEDERAL FORM 990 FOR 2015 HAD IN FACT NEVER ACTUALLY BEEN FILED.THIS WAS NOT AN INSTANCE OF INTENTIONAL NEGLECT, BUT ONE OF UNFORTUNATE AND UNCONTROLLABLE CIRCUMSTANCES. IT IS WITH HOPE THAT I ASK YOU TO CONSIDER WAIVING THE PENALTY FEES ASSOCIATED WITH OUR FAILURE TO FILE THE APPROPRIATE PAPERWORK WITH YOUR AGENCY.PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. I CAN BE REACHED BY PHONE AT (503) 338-0331, OR BY EMAIL AT JOSH@COASTWILDLIFE.ORG.MANY THANKS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.WITH WARM REGARDS,JOSHUA SARANPAAEXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
