Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bPart VI, Line 11b - The Form 990 is prepared by staff. Once the form is prepared it is sent to company's attorney and auditor for review. After it is reviewed it is presented, unsigned, to the board of directors for review at a board meeting prior to filing.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cPart VI, Line 12c - The cooperative reviews compliance statements, contracts, and transactions for conflicts of interest as part of our regular course of business.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15Part VI, Line 15a - The board of directors fill out evaluation forms on the General Manager annually. They annually do a survey of Oregon and Washington electric co-ops regarding general manager salaries and compensation. They then have a formula that they apply to the results to assist in their determination of the GM's compensation. Part VI, Line 15b - The General Manager annually reviews salary surveys of electric utilities and other businesses in the northwest of comparable size for management staff.

Form 990, Part IX, Line 4Part IX, Line 4 - The Cooperative has determined that the margin allocated to members best reflects the Benefits Paid to or for Members arising from the clarification of the instructions that patronage dividends paid by section 501(c)(12) organizations are to be reported here. This methodology was chosen because it makes our reporting consistent with how it would be reported if we were a taxable cooperative in that the amount allocated to members would be a deduction from income. This arises from our legal obligation from our Bylaw 7.5 stating that " Net savings of the Cooperative....shall be appropriated among and credited to the patrons of the Cooperative in proportion to the dollar amounts of their patronage of the Cooperative during the fiscal year involved."
