This was the 7th year of participation in the program Gulf Watch Alaska. Hosted several graduate students and international collaborators from Canada, France, Japan, and United Kingdom. 0 101466 Facility Development & Maintenance: ISRC personnel (volunteers) continued major renovations of the primary seabird research habitats and support buildings on Middleton Island--including re-roofing of the so-called "Chateau," a project several years in the making. 0 4330 Administration: Business filing fees, interest payments, office supplies, registration and travel to meetings, bank service fees and postage, computers and software, workers compensation insurance. 0 5931 Fundraising - ISRC contracted with an Independent Contractor to prepare a study plan and proposal for seabird habitat restoration on Middleton Island in response to a solicitation from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Portland area office) and U.S. Coast Guard National Pollution Funds Center (NPFC) for projects that would mitigate environmental impacts of an historical oil spill on the west coast of the U.S. This proposal, if funded in a future year, may result in significant new funding for ISRC program services 2 (Facilities and Maintenance) and 3 (Administration). 0 5000 116727 Scott A Hatch President 5 0 0 0 William J Sydeman Director & VP 0.5 0 0 0 G Vernon Byrd Director 0.5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Scott A Hatch 12850 Mountain Pl Anchorage AK 995163185 9073016352 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 47418 51593 62181 100990 94591 356773 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 47418 51593 62181 100990 94591 356773 8066 348707 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6993 6462 6015 19470 376243 0 0.92681 0.92862 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 ISRC owns and operates a non-profit scientific research facility on Middleton Island in the Gulf of Alaska. This remote facility includes several renovated buildings, artificial bird research habitats, and various other infrastructure such as domestic amenities, freezer space, ATVs, freezers, tool & equipment. Research collaborators, both foreign and domestic, visit the station during the spring/summer period for periods of weeks or months. ISRC assesses such visitors (i.e., non-ISRC personnel) a daily fee of $10/person for facility usage--income that goes toward the cost of maintaining this infrastructure on a common-use basis. In 2023, ISRC collected $6,015 in facility fees, representing 601 total person-days of facility usage. Facility usage fees are levied on an "ability-to-pay" basis. They are waivable, and thus could perhaps be accounted as suggested donation amounts (public support, Part I) instead of "other income" (Part II). We use the latter, more conservative, categorization here, as the annual total of facility usage fees will in any case be a minor amount of total annual income.
