Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

INVESTIGATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF IMPROVED SOLUTIONS TO ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES; SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH; INCREASING INDUSTRY, GOVERNMENT, ACADEMIC AND PUBLIC AWARENESS OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES AND SOLUTIONS. (SEE SCHEDULE O)

Activities or mission (Part I)

Our 6 main areas of focus in 2024 were: 1) RESOLVING WATER ISSUES, including clean water supply scarcities caused by severe drought, water contamination, and flawed water management practices that are threatening the health of habitats. In 2024, we continued to advance our Deep Seated Water Technology (DSW Tech). Deep-seated water is high-quality groundwater that is typically sourced from deep aquifers that are located far below the shallow aquifers normally tapped into by most water wells. Our DSW Tech is a systematic method utilizing advanced technologies for locating previously-hidden, near-surface access points to fissures bringing water up from deep within the planet as an abundant alternative water resource. Here are the key milestones our DSW science and tech experts achieved this year:A.We continued to refine and advance our technical methods for precisely identifying where to drill, and how deep, in order to access with 100% certainty, near-surface areas for water exploration.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

  • AQUATERREX

Taxable family

From Schedule R Parts I, III and IV: entities that legally are the filer, and taxable partnerships, corporations and trusts it is related to. These record ownership and control, not shared board members or money.

California fundraising campaigns

Campaigns run by paid fundraisers, commercial coventurers and thrift stores naming this organization, as California published them. Both figures are as filed, and what the first one counts depends on the campaign type — a coventurer or a thrift store files its own sales rather than money collected for the charity. The 990 reports this only as a yearly total, never per campaign.

Amounts are as filed and do not add up: a commercial coventurer reports one promotion's whole gross once for each charity that shared in it. A campaign may also name more than one registered charity, in which case it appears on each.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
