| FORM 990, PART III | TODAY'S ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES ARE GREATER THAN EVER. BUT WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY OF STRONG ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS-AND EARTHJUSTICE HOLDS THOSE WHO BREAK THESE LAWS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. AS THE NATION'S ORIGINAL AND LARGEST NONPROFIT ENVIRONMENTAL LAW ORGANIZATION, WE LEVERAGE OUR EXPERTISE AND COMMITMENT TO FIGHT FOR JUSTICE AND CREATE LASTING CHANGE. WE BRING CASES THAT WILL HAVE THE BIGGEST IMPACT, SETTING PRECEDENTS FOR GENERATIONS TO COME. OUR MANY SUCCESSES ACROSS THE DECADES ARE THANKS TO STRONG PARTNERSHIPS WITH HUNDREDS OF ORGANIZATIONS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PASSIONATE SUPPORTERS. OF COURSE, WINNING A CASE IS ONLY PART OF THE BATTLE. OUR LITIGATION IS STRENGTHENED BY POLICY AND COMMUNICATIONS TEAMS WORKING WITH DECISION-MAKERS IN WASHINGTON, D.C., AND WITHIN THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION TO SUSTAIN OUR LEGAL VICTORIES. EARTHJUSTICE PURSUES THREE KEY GOALS TO SECURE A JUST AND FLOURISHING WORLD: - FIGHTING FOR HEALTHY COMMUNITIES - PRESERVING THE WILD - ADVANCING CLEAN ENERGY AND A HEALTHY CLIMATE FISCAL YEAR 2015 WAS AN EVENTFUL ONE FOR EARTHJUSTICE, AS WE TRANSITIONED TO EVEN MORE AMBITIOUS STRATEGIC GOALS IN OUR THREE MAJOR PROGRAMS AND CONTINUED TO RACK UP VICTORIES FOR PEOPLE AND OUR ENVIRONMENT. DURING THE YEAR, WE MAINTAINED A DOCKET OF OVER 350 CASES, REPRESENTING OVER 500 CLIENTS. BELOW ARE A SAMPLE OF VICTORIES ACHIEVED IN SERVICE OF OUR MISSION. ADVANCING CLEAN ENERGY AND A HEALTHY CLIMATE EARTHJUSTICE'S WORK IN THE COURTS, AND INCREASINGLY IN PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION VENUES, CONTINUES TO FOCUS ON FORCING AN END TO COAL-FIRED POWER AND REMOVING BARRIERS SO THAT CLEAN ENERGY TO TAKE HOLD. WE ARE ACHIEVING RESULTS IN CUTTING CARBON EMISSIONS, LESSENING OUR RELIANCE ON FOSSIL FUELS AND MOVING THE WORLD CLOSER TO A CLEAN ENERGY FUTURE AND A HEALTHY CLIMATE. VICTORIES FOR A HEALTHY CLIMATE WE CONTINUED A STATE-BY-STATE FIGHT TO RETIRE COAL-FIRED POWER PLANTS BY WORKING TO ENSURE THAT PLANTS WERE COMPLYING WITH FEDERAL CLEAN AIR ACT REQUIREMENTS. AS A RESULT OF OUR EFFORTS, BY THE END OF JUNE, 2015, 28 COAL PLANTS WERE FORCED TO RETIRE AS A RESULT OF NOT BEING ABLE TO COMPLY WITH EXISTING REGULATIONS. UNRELENTING WORK BY OUR ATTORNEYS OVER MORE THAN A DECADE CULMINATED IN A SUPREME COURT RULING IN 2014 THAT UPHOLDS THE EPA'S AUTHORITY TO LIMIT CARBON POLLUTION. THAT VICTORY IS THE FOUNDATION FOR THE CLEAN POWER PLAN - THE AMERICAN COMMITMENT TO CUT CARBON POLLUTION THAT CONTRIBUTED TO AN INTERNATIONAL BREAK-THROUGH AT THE 2015 PARIS CLIMATE CHANGE CONFERENCE. WE HALTED THE EXPANSION OF AN OIL TRAIN FACILITY IN ALBANY, NY, DESIGNED TO HANDLE DIRTY TAR SANDS OIL, SUCCESSFULLY DEFENDED A PERMIT DENIAL FOR A COAL TERMINAL EXPANSION ON THE COLUMBIA RIVER IN OREGON, AND BLOCKED CONSTRUCTION OF A REFINERY OIL TRAIN FACILITY IN WASHINGTON STATE. VICTORIES FOR CLEAN ENERGY OUR ADVOCACY EFFORTS HELPED SECURE THE PASSAGE OF BILLS IN MARYLAND WHICH ALLOW FOR THE CREATION OF COMMUNITY SOLAR PROJECTS, ENABLING ALL MARYLANDERS TO GENERATE RENEWABLE SOLAR ENERGY, ACCESS AFFORDABLE SOLAR ENERGY, AND REAP THE BENEFITS OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY, FROM LOWER UTILITY BILLS TO MORE COMFORTABLE LIVING SPACES. EARTHJUSTICE AND SEVERAL PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS INTERVENED TO SUCCESSFULLY DEFEND COLORADO'S RENEWABLE ENERGY STANDARD. THIS VICTORY ENSURES THAT THE CORNERSTONE OF COLORADO'S CLEAN ENERGY ECONOMY REMAINS IN PLACE. COLORADO HAS ONE OF THE MOST AMBITIOUS RENEWABLE ENERGY STANDARDS IN THE NATION, REQUIRING LARGE INVESTOR-OWNED UTILITIES TO SUPPLY 30 PERCENT OF RETAIL ELECTRICITY SALES WITH RENEWABLES BY 2020. OUR ADVOCACY IN THE KENTUCKY PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION PROCEEDING HELPED TO SECURE APPROVAL OF A 10-MEGAWATT SOLAR PROJECT PROPOSED BY LOUISVILLE GAS AND ELECTRIC AND KENTUCKY UTILITIES. THIS PROJECT, EXPECTED TO GO ONLINE IN 2016, WILL BECOME THE COMMONWEALTH'S LARGEST SOLAR FACILITY AND THE FIRST UTILITY-SCALE TRULY RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECT IN THE STATE. FIGHTING FOR HEALTHY COMMUNITIES EARTHJUSTICE WORKS AT REGIONAL AND NATIONAL LEVELS TO ENSURE WIDESPREAD PROTECTIONS FROM AIR AND WATER POLLUTION AND EXPOSURE TO TOXIC CHEMICALS. OUR FIGHT FOR HEALTHY COMMUNITIES INVOLVES STRENGTHENING NATIONAL STANDARDS AND HOLDING POLLUTERS ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THEY VIOLATE THOSE STANDARDS VICTORY FOR FARMWORKERS OUR LITIGATION AND ADVOCACY SECURED MAJOR PROTECTIONS FOR FARMWORKERS, WHO ARE ON THE FRONT LINES OF EXPOSURE TO PESTICIDES, SUFFERING TENS OF THOUSANDS OF REPORTED PESTICIDE POISONINGS EVERY YEAR. YEARS OF HARD WORK BY EARTHJUSTICE AND OUR ALLIES, INCLUDING AN EFFECTIVE CAMPAIGN TO BRING FARMWORKER JUSTICE, UNITED FARM WORKERS AND OTHER KEY PARTNERS, AND THEIR STORIES TO LEGISLATORS AND EPA SUCCEEDED IN PRESSURING EPA TO CREATE THE FIRST UPDATES TO THE WORKER PROTECTION STANDARD IN 20 YEARS. VICTORY FOR FIREFIGHTERS REPRESENTING FIREFIGHTERS AND HEALTH ADVOCATES, EARTHJUSTICE SECURED A LANDMARK VICTORY IN CALIFORNIA THAT LIBERATES MANUFACTURERS FROM BEING FORCED TO INFUSE COUCHES, CHAIRS AND OTHER FURNITURE WITH TOXIC FLAME RETARDANT CHEMICALS THAT ARE PROVEN TO BE INEFFECTIVE AT PREVENTING FIRE, A MAJOR CAUSE OF FIRE DEATHS AND INJURIES, AND HAVE BEEN LINKED TO HIGHER CANCER RATES AMONG FIREFIGHTERS. VICTORY FOR OUR FOOD SUPPLY REPRESENTING A COALITION OF BEEKEEPERS, WE SUCCESSFULLY LITIGATED TO OVERTURN EPA'S APPROVAL OF SULFOXAFLOR, ONE IN A CLASS OF PESTICIDES THAT ARE CONTRIBUTING TO WIDESPREAD BEE COLONY COLLAPSE. THE COURT'S DECISION TO OVERTURN APPROVAL OF THE BEE-KILLING PESTICIDE IS GOOD NEWS FOR ALL WHO ENJOY THE HEALTHY FRUITS, NUTS, AND VEGETABLES THAT RELY ON BEES FOR POLLINATION. VICTORY FOR NATIVE HAWAIIAN COMMUNITIES OCTOBER, 2014, MARKED THE RETURN OF WATER FLOWS TO TWO STREAMS ON MAUI FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MORE THAN 150 YEARS. THIS RESTORATION OF WAILUKU RIVER AND WAIKAPU STREAM IS A RESULT OF AN ONGOING EARTHJUSTICE CAMPAIGN ON BEHALF OF MAUI COMMUNITY GROUPS TO STOP THE PRIVATE INDUSTRIAL DIVERSIONS THAT HAVE DEPRIVED NATIVE HAWAIIAN COMMUNITIES AND STREAM, WETLAND, AND NEAR-SHORE ECOSYSTEMS FOR OVER A CENTURY. VICTORY FOR NAVAJO NATION AND NATIONAL PARKS THE FOUR CORNERS POWER PLANT IS AN ENERGY BEHEMOTH THAT HAS BEEN OPERATING-AND POLLUTING-SINCE 1963. WE SECURED AN AGREEMENT WITH EPA AND THE OWNERS OF THE PLANT THAT WILL REDUCE EMISSIONS OF NITROGEN OXIDES AND SULFUR DIOXIDE -MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO BOTH RESPIRATORY HEALTH PROBLEMS AND HAZE IN THE PARKS. PRESERVING THE WILD ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS THAT PROTECT OUR IRREPLACEABLE WILDLIFE AND WILD PLACES MEAN LITTLE IF THEY ARE NOT UPHELD. EARTHJUSTICE ENFORCES LAWS TO ENSURE THAT SPECIES AND WILD ECOSYSTEMS CAN FREELY EXIST AND ADAPT TO A CHANGING WORLD. VICTORIES FOR FISH WE WON A SIGNIFICANT VICTORY IN SEPTEMBER, 2014, WHEN THE FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT IN ALASKA RULED IN FAVOR OF OUR CHALLENGE TO THE NATIONAL MARINE FISHERIES SERVICE'S DECISION TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF HUMAN OBSERVERS ON HIGH-VOLUME TRAWLERS IN THE NORTH PACIFIC GROUNDFISH FISHERY, AMERICA'S LARGEST FISHERY. THOSE TRAWLERS ARE A LARGE SOURCE OF SALMON AND HALIBUT BYCATCH, AND ADEQUATE OBSERVER COVERAGE IS CRITICAL TO CONTROLLING THAT BYCATCH. OUR WEST COAST FORAGE FISH WORK SCORED AN IMPORTANT SUCCESS WHEN THE PACIFIC FISHERY MANAGEMENT COUNCIL VOTED TO CLOSE THE COMMERCIAL SARDINE FISHERY ON THE WEST COAST UNTIL JULY, 2016. SARDINE POPULATIONS HAVE DROPPED BY MORE THAN 90 PERCENT SINCE 2007, WHICH IN TURN HAS CAUSED SERIOUS HARM TO WILDLIFE THAT DEPEND ON THIS IMPORTANT FOOD SOURCE. BROWN PELICANS, FOR EXAMPLE, HAVE EXHIBITED MASS BREEDING FAILURES, AND SEA LION PUPS HAVE EXPERIENCED 70 PERCENT MORTALITY RATES DUE TO LACK OF NUTRITIOUS PREY. WE SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATED THE SARDINE FISHING CLOSURE IN ORDER TO PROTECT SPAWNING SARDINE AND ALLOW THE POPULATION TO REBUILD. VICTORY FOR WHALES AND MARINE MAMMALS IN MARCH, 2015, WE WON A MOMENTOUS VICTORY IN OUR CHALLENGE TO THE U.S. NAVY'S TRAINING PROGRAM THAT HARMS WHALES AND OTHER MARINE MAMMALS THROUGH SHIP STRIKES AND THE USE OF UNDERWATER EXPLOSIVES AND SONAR. WE NEGOTIATED TO PROTECT KEY FEEDING, MIGRATION AND BREEDING AREAS OFF THE COAST OF HAWAII AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOR WHALES, DOLPHINS, AND OTHER MARINE MAMMALS. VICTORIES FOR LANDS AND WILDLIFE IN NOVEMBER, 2014, WE OBTAINED A FAVORABLE SETTLEMENT IN OUR CASE TO PROTECT WESTERN COLORADO'S ROAN PLATEAU, HOME TO SOME OF NORTH AMERICA'S RAREST PLANTS, TENS OF THOUSANDS OF ACRES OF WILDERNESS-QUALITY LAND, AND CRUCIAL WILDLIFE HABITAT. THE BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT WILL CANCEL ALL BUT TWO OF THE OIL AND GAS LEASES ON THE ECOLOGICALLY SENSITIVE TOP OF THE PLATEAU. THE SETTLEMENT ALSO SETS THE STAGE FOR A NEW BLM PLAN THAT PRECLUDES ISSUING NEW LEASES ATOP THE PLATEAU AND CONSERVES IMPORTANT WILDLIFE HABITAT AT THE BASE OF THE ROAN. |
| THE YEAR ALSO BROUGHT A HOST OF OTHER IMPORTANT VICTORIES ON THE LANDS AND | WILDLIFE FRONT, FROM BLOCKING A WOLF-KILLING PROGRAM IN IDAHO TO HALTING A PLAN TO ELIMINATE SECURE GRIZZLY BEAR HABITAT IN MONTANA TO UPHOLDING A URANIUM-MINING BAN ON LANDS NEAR THE GRAND CANYON TO FORCING FULL ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW OF A PROPOSED OIL-TRANSPORT FACILITY ON PADILLA BAY, NEAR THE SAN JUAN ISLANDS IN WASHINGTON STATE. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11 | A FULL COPY OF FORM 990 IS POSTED ON A SECURE WEB PORTAL ACCESSIBLE BY THE TRUSTEES AT LEAST ONE WEEK PRIOR TO FILING. THE TRUSTEES ARE NOTIFIED OF THE FORM 990 POSTING AND ENCOURAGED TO REVIEW AND COMMENT ON IT PRIOR TO FILING. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY REQUIRES AN ANNUAL DISCLOSURE BY TRUSTEES AND SENIOR STAFF OF ENTITIES IN WHICH THEY HAVE PERSONAL, FINANCIAL OR PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS. THE RESULTS OF THOSE DISCLOSURES ARE COMPILED INTO A SCREENING LIST OF ENTITIES USED BY THE BOARD CHAIR, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND GENERAL COUNSEL WHEN REVIEWING POTENTIAL TRANSACTIONS WITH EARTHJUSTICE AND OUTSIDE ENTITIES. THE SCREENING LIST IS USED TO CHECK TO ASSURE THAT INDIVIDUAL DECISION-MAKERS RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM ANY PARTICIPATION IN DECISIONS AFFECTING THE ENTITIES IN WHICH THEY HAVE INTERESTS. |
| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 | WE GET COMPETITIVE DATA FROM AN OUTSIDE COMPENSATION CONSULTANT FOR OUR CEO. IN ADDITION OUR VP-HR COLLECTS SALARIES OF CEOS FROM OTHER NON-PROFIT ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL DATA FOR THE KEY NATIONAL NON-PROFIT ENVIRONMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS. THIS INFORMATION IS PASSED ALONG TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS WHO REVIEWS THE DATA AND MAKES THE APPROPRIATE RECOMMENDATION FOR OUR CEO SALARY. WE DO A BI-ANNUAL REVIEW OF ALL POSITIONS IN THE ORGANIZATION INCLUDING THE CEO AND ALL STAFF. WE UPDATE ALL POSITION DESCRIPTIONS AND USE AN OUTSIDE COMPENSATION CONSULTANT TO DETERMINE SALARIES THAT MATCH THE JOB RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE NON-PROFIT SECTOR IN THE SPECIFIC GEOGRAPHIC AREAS IN WHICH OUR JOBS ARE LOCATED. OUR VP-HR THEN WORKS WITH MANAGERS, BASED ON PERFORMANCE TO DETERMINE WHAT THE APPROPRIATE SALARY SHOULD BE WITHIN THIS RANGE. SINCE THIS PROCESS IS QUITE TIME INTENSIVE, WE DO THIS EVERY OTHER YEAR. IN THE YEAR WE DON'T GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS, WE GET COMPETITIVE DATA ABOUT WHAT THE AVERAGE RAISE WILL BE AND USE THIS AS A GUIDELINE FOR OUR BUDGETING PROCESS. OUR ATTORNEYS' PAY IS BASED ON THE YEAR OF GRADUATION FROM LAW SCHOOL, TO WHICH WE ADD A GEOGRAPHIC ADJUSTMENT BASED ON THE OFFICE LOCATION, E.G. BOZEMAN, MONTANA VS. NEW YORK, NY. WE CONTACT OTHER CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE SIERRA CLUB AND ALSO GOVERNMENT ENTITIES LIKE THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE TO DETERMINE THE APPROPRIATE PAY FOR OUR ATTORNEYS. |
