Description	Alaskans for Energy Freedom - ACF serves as the fiscal sponsor for Alaskans for Energy Freedom, a coalition of 30 conservation and tribal organizations who have organized a campaign to prevent extraction, export and combustion of Alaska's coal, and to move the state to a clean energy economy. Alaska has over 5.5 trillion tons of coal reserves-only a tiny fraction of which has been mined-which represents nearly 50% of total US coal reserves and 12% of global reserves. The goal of the campaign is to reduce reliance on coal as an energy resource, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and promote transition to renewable sources of energy.	Description

Description	Tongass Fish People Place - ACF provides leadership and financial support to a coalition of conservation organizations, commercial fishermen, local businesses and local communities working together for sustainable management of the Tongass National Forest, the largest forest in the National Forest system and one of the last remaining temperate rainforests in the world. The coalition is focused on 1) supporting a rapid transition from old-growth to young-growth timber harvest; 2) building a sustainable wood products industry in the region; 3) increasing protection for the region's salmon fisheries that sustains the economies of the region's coastal communities; and 4) protecting the region's ancient rainforest.

Description	Strengthening the Alaska conservation movement - Supporting Alaska's conservation movement lies at the core of the Alaska Conservation Foundation's (ACF) mission. In 2008, ACF initiated a comprehensive assessment of the Alaska conservation movement to identify opportunities for collaboration between conservation groups that would create greater efficiencies in operations, expand the diversity of the movement, and better achieve common goals. The result was the formation of a coalition of Alaska conservation leaders working together with ACF to transform the movement with the goal of increasing its power and influence, and building enduring change in the strength and diversity of efforts to protect Alaska's natural environment and the ways of life it sustains.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19	Governing documents availability to the public.	Financial statements are included on form 990 and in the organization's annual report, available on our WEB site. Governing and policy documents are available upon request. The most current three Form 990s are displayed on the Alaska Conservation Foundation website.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11	Form 990 provided to governing board before filing.	Form 990 is reviewed by the Executive Committee of the board of trustees prior to filing the tax return with the IRS.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c	Monitoring Compliance with Conflict of Interest Policy	ACF's conflict of interest policy covers any employee, trustee, or person with substantial influence over the organization ("insider"), or between the organization and a person affiliated with any employee, insider, or current or potential grantee organization. Each trustee or insider is required to disclose to the Board or relevant Board Committee all material facts regarding his or her interest (including relevant affiliations) in a decision or transaction being considered by the Board or Board Committee. The insider is required to make that disclosure promptly upon learning of the proposed decision or transaction. Each employee who is not an insider is required to disclose to the Executive Director all material facts regarding his or her interest (including relevant affiliations) in any decision or transaction being considered by the Board. The employee must make that disclosure promptly upon learning of the proposed decision or transaction. With regard to an insider, the Board or Board Committee determined relevant by the Executive Committee shall determine if a conflict of interest exists. If the insider is a trustee, he or she shall not be present during the Board or Board Committee's discussion or determination of whether a conflict of interest exists. With regard to an employee who is not an insider, the Executive Director shall determine whether a conflict of interest exists. With regard to an insider, the Board or Board Committee investigates the potential conflict in order to decide whether to make the relevant decision or to enter into the transaction. If it does so, it must ensure that the basis for the decision is prudent and sound or the terms of the transaction are reasonable. In the case of an insider who is a trustee, the trustee will not vote on any decision or transaction in which the trustee has an interest, and will not be present during the Board or Board Committee's discussions. With regard to an employee who is not an insider, the Executive Director shall decide the appropriate response by the organization once a conflict of interest has been determined to exist. An employee may appeal any adverse determination to the Board. The Board oversees an annual review of the administration of this conflict of interest policy. The review may be written or oral, and presented annually to the full board. The review will consider the level of compliance with the policy, the continuing suitability of the policy, and whether the policy should be modified and improved.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4	Describe other program services (not included in 3 largest)	Expenses ($350,714) Bristol Bay Fisheries and Watershed Protection Campaign - This campaign is a significant effort of a coalition of rural villages, commercial fishermen, sport fishermen, local businesses and conservation groups to safeguard Alaska's Bristol Bay watershed, which sustains the largest wild salmon runs left on earth. The Campaign is focusing significant efforts on addressing the potentially devastating impacts of the proposed Pebble Mine. If developed, the mine will be a massive, open pit gold and copper mine-the largest in North America. Expenses ($175,686) Alaska Native Fund - ACF established an Alaska Native Fund to advance Alaska Native priorities for protecting land and sustaining ways of life essential for cultural survival. The goals of the Alaska Native Fund are to 1) increase foundation and private resources for Alaska Native organizations engaged in protecting fisheries and wildlife resources; 2) support Alaska Native determination of environmental issues, strategies, and solutions; and 3) build relationships that will grow and strengthen the conservation movement in Alaska. Proposals for grant-making from the fund are made by an advisory committee comprised of native leaders throughout Alaska. Ultimate grant-making decisions are determined by the Alaska Conservation Foundation board of trustees. The committee has identified the following priority areas: impacts of extractive industries; protection of subsistence resources; climate change; energy; and environmental health.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a	Determination of executive compensation	Executive Director compensation is reviewed at the time of director recruitment by reviewing comparability salary data compilations for similar positions at similarly situated organizations: both national environmental groups, national foundations, and Alaska's nonprofit sector. Initial review is performed by an ad hoc committee or the executive committee, with a determination of salary range then discussed and passed contemporaneously by board resolution at a convening of the board. The review process can be reinitiated at other times by determination of the board chair. Process last undertaken in 2011.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15b	Determination of compensation for other officers and key employees	The organization has no "key employees", and only one officer in addition to the Executive Director: the Director of Finance and Operations. For this employee, salary range is determined at the time of position recruitment by reviewing comparability salary data compilations for similar positions at similarly situated organizations: both national environmental groups, and Alaska's nonprofit sector. Salary review is performed by the executive director, discussed with the executive committee, and recorded with supporting documentation by the E.D. The review process can be reinitiated at other times by determination of the executive director. Process last undertaken in 2010.
