Sec. 15. Organization, powers, and duties of Foundation. As soon as practical after the Foundation is created, the Board of Directors shall meet, organize, and designate, by majority vote, a treasurer, secretary, and any additional officers that may be needed to carry out the activities of the Foundation, and shall adopt bylaws of the Foundation. The Department of Natural Resources may adopt other rules deemed necessary to govern Foundation procedures.
The Foundation may accept gifts or grants from the federal government, its agencies or officers, or from any person, firm, or corporation, and may expend receipts on activities that it considers suitable to the performance of its duties under this Act and consistent with any requirement of the grant, gift, or bequest. Funds collected by the Foundation shall be considered private funds, except those received from public entities, and shall be held in an appropriate account outside of the State Treasury.

Foundation procurement is exempt from the Illinois Procurement Code when only private funds are used for procurement expenditures. The treasurer of the Foundation shall be custodian of all Foundation funds.
