DescriptionThe Carriage Road maintenance grant makes possible the salaries of six Acadia National Park workers who perform regular maintenance of the park's 44 miles of historic carriage roads. In 2010, the workers repaired all winter storm damage including surface damage, erosion and tree falls. Crews were kept busy for weeks repairing winter and spring washouts, and spent approximately a week recovering and resetting coping stones that had been dislodged due to storms and vandalism, and added surface material and graded major equestrian routes. This program also uses thousands of volunteer hours from our volunteer and Acadia Youth Conservation programs. In addition, the AYCC youths split ten cords of firewood for the campgrounds.Description

Friends of Acadia has been involved with the bus system since its inception, granting $2 million in funding, and securing more than $2.05 million in grants from L.L. Bean to enable continued growth. Friends of Acadia's grant supplements the operating costs of 25 buses on Mount Desert Island and 1 on the Schoodic Peninsula.Description

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11The Form 990 is reviewed by the audit committee. After discussion with the lead and managing auditors the return is signed and filed. Additionally, the full board reviews the Form 990 prior to its filing.
Once a year, a disclosure form is mailed to each board member as well as the members of the development committee and the investment and finance committee. That form is also delivered to the staff. Completion of each form is required; those who do not return the form are mailed another. The answers are then reviewed by the governance/nominating committee who report to the board.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c
The policy of the Organization is to periodically use the Maine Association of Non-Profit's salary and benefits survey to review current positions and related salaries. Also taken into consideration is cost of living and rate of inflation statistics. Board's executive committee sets the president's salary. The salary listed for the president in Part VII, page 8, includes 27 pay periods, rather than the normal 26 pay periods per year. The first pay period of 2010 was 1/1/10 and the last pay period was 12/31/10. This caused an overstatement of salary by one two-week pay period that was expensed in 2009, but paid in 2010.Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15
