4 5. Report from the President-Elect Paul Britt a. Councilor Vacancies Effective the end of this fiscal year, vacancies will occur in the Eastern Section, Rocky Mountain Section and Pacific Section. The deadline for submission of names is the end of November b. Section Meetings Are there other things DPA should be doing at Section meetings other than luncheons? c. Congressional Visit Days Britt represented the DPA at the Washington GEO-DC Visit Days in early September. Twenty-two people attended. Britt said it was a very eye-opening experience. Britt encouraged participation in future visits. Two congressional visits have been organized one is general scientific and the other geosciences. d. Ad Space in the EXPLORER Ad space in the EXPLORER for DPA runs out at the end of the calendar year. There is still an opportunity to put an article in the December issue or lose it. 6. Treasurer s Report Michael Fogarty Fogarty reviewed the financial report for year ending June 30, (The entire report is located on the DPA web page.) The DPA is financially sound with substantial investments to support it due to a long-standing policy of investing funds above the level of income. However, recent changes in spending have substantially increased due to the partial funding of the GEO-DC office, which has resulted in a net loss for the Division. a. Income and Expense Statement The income and expense statement shows operating income of $175,434, which is almost 87% and $27,016 below budgeted operating income. This is due to a miscellaneous income shortfall of $49,525. Operating expenses were $154,141, which is $3,900 less than budgeted. Travel expenses and miscellaneous grant expenses were the two items which were significantly lower than budgeted amounts. b. Balance Sheet The balance sheet shows cash of $41,997. Total assets are $877,798 for the same time frame. Total liabilities are $90,891; and the fund balance is $786,907. c. Investment Portfolio Investments show a fair market value of $834,593.73, down from the previous year of $933, There was an unrealized loss of $144,149 in the investment portfolio. DPA investments are co-mingled with AAPG s investments and reflect a percentage of the overall AAPG portfolio performance. The market and bonds were down significantly for FY Page 4 of 10
5 d. Budget The 2009 budget shows a projected loss of $53,216, primarily due to partial funding of the GEO-DC office in the amount of a $60,000 grant. The Councilors discussed ways to increase income. Ericksen suggested the development of membership services in order to attract new members in lieu of a dues increase at this time. If this doesn t work, then maybe a dues increase would be in order. The bottom line: DPA needs to be proactive by anticipating the future. Membership continues to decline, and operating expenses continue to increase. Guidelines need to be established for future Councilors. Party stated that the Councilors should be recruiting more members. Motion: Birdwell moved/sacrey seconded; to accept the Treasurer s report as presented. Motion carried. 7. Report from the Executive Director Rick Fritz The focus for AAPG and DPA is providing the best professionalism and science. Key economic indicators for AAPG are membership and finances. AAPG is finally turning around Active member losses sustained for a number of years. A positive trend is that younger people are joining as Actives. Graduated dues are up to 1,000 members. About 20% are new members; the others are members who pay less dues than they paid before. The Foundation s fundraising campaign has generated 25M. This total represents contributions from individuals. The next phase will be to solicit contributions from industry. Very pleased with the way the GEO-DC is running. It provides information, surveillance and opportunities. The DOE will be presenting a proposal to AAPG/DPA regarding the possibility of an OTC-type meeting. Fritz reviewed potential changes to AAPG s Bylaws which will be addressed in future EXPLORER articles. Change in Headquarters personnel A new Director of Education will be named soon. In the process of searching for a qualified person to assist both Norma Newby (Office of Divisions) and Administration. International conferences are taking a great deal of staff time. There is now a London office, and Middle East office. Looking at a joint office in Singapore. Page 5 of 10
