Overview

Mission

CTEC has facilitated public involvement in the remediation, restoration and development of the Butte area Superfund issues. CTEC has provided technical assistance, technical comments and public education and outreach. (Continued on Schedule O, Statement 2)

What it reported doing in 2024

Disseminating Superfund technical information for more than decade for a Superfund site that will have monitoring into perpetuity with waste left in place. This has been accomplished through a technical assistance grant funded by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
