This bylaw passed unanimously in the city council's regular meeting, along with other bylaws for borrowing money. The Ministry of Community Services later rejected the bylaws because the terms of which did not jive with a change in the interpretation of the Community Charter. No specifics were discussed, but the proposed bylaws have been amended and were to be voted on January 22, 2007. I don't know the results of that vote. I can only assume it would have passed again like it did the first time. GLTA in this issue.

First American Scientific Corp (FASC - OTCBB) signs agreement with the City of Prince George to install KDS Micronex equipment for processing sewage sludge at their wastewater treatment facility
VANCOUVER, Oct. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Brian Nichols, President of First American Scientific Corp. (FASC) announced today the signing of an MOU with the city of Prince George, BC, Canada to assist in solving its environmental cleanup problems with sewage sludge using the KDS Micronex system. "This will be the first operation of its kind in the world, says David Dungate, FASC's VP of marketing, where the strictly regulated Class B municipal sludge can now be cleaned, bagged and profitably sold to the public as a soil amendment." The initial runs will be monitored for three months, and if satisfactory, the city plans to establish a permanent facility utilizing up to 4 micronizers.
According to Dayton & Knight, the city's consulting engineers, "the series of tests undertaken this summer 2005 at FASC's Vancouver demonstration site confirmed the ability of the KDS Micronex to consistently convert Class "B" biosolids to Class "A" biosolids and achieved an effective pathogen destruction rate of 99.9 % in all test samples"
FASC believes the KDS Micronex could become the preferred universal solution for handling Class B sludge by converting municipal waste into a valuable resource. With the successful showcase of our system's ability in Prince George, Canada, we could see our system in use all across the developing world.
There are approximately 15,000 municipal wastewater treatment plants in North America alone that process almost 34 billion gallons of domestic sewage and other wastewater each day. In Asia and Europe the markets are even larger, and FASC is well poised to service those markets through its established network of licensees and affiliates in the U.K., Poland, the USA, Canada, Malaysia, and Japan.

It's time to start considering this one again. Recent volume spikes have set off some alarms...
Ridiculously oversold at .016. A very recent 10-Q filing from 2/12 indicated an o/s of 193,793,955- up only 4 million shares from the September 2006 10-K filing.
I have played this in the past earlier this year in September when it was oversold at .035 and flipped out of it at around .05. Given that relatively little dilution has occured since that time, .016 seems like an absolute bargain. I would imagine that there would be some initial reistance at .02 and .022. The 50 dma is about .029.
It would not surprise me to see it try and test .04 again, but I would expect some profit taking to occur before that happens. But you never know in the wild world of OTCBB land...
Also working in their favor is that this is a legitimate company with a quick ratio of about 1.4:1- selling off that KDS technology of theirs generates some fairly significant revenues for their company
Addition Info: First American Scientific Corp ( OTCBB: FASC ): First American Scientific Corporation (FASC) is an innovative equipment manufacturer and provider of turn-key systems that increase profitability and reduce the environmental impact of materials processing. In addition to its micronizing/particle-reduction capabilities in the mining industry, the patented KDS also acts as a moisture-reducer and a pathogen-killer for use in biomass waste. This combination of characteristics together make the KDS a very unique piece of equipment in this industry.

Two months later and it is still the same price. I am looking forward to hearing what Dayton & Knight and the City of Prince George had to say about the Micronex Process at the annual British Columbia Water and Waste Association (and the KDS Micronex' ability to convert biosolids during waste water treatment into a class A biosolids.)
If a solid company like Dayton & Knight take an interest in the KDS Micronex as a waste water treatment option, this stock could really see some exciting days in the future. First things first though is seeing the City of Prince George approve the funding for the Waste Water Centre Micronex.

2:20 – 2:55 pm Pilot Testing of the Micronex System to Produce a Class A Biosolids Presenting Author(s): Marco Fornari, City of Prince George and John Boyle, P.Eng.,Dayton & Knight Ltd
Other Author(s): Norm Gobbi, A.Sc.T., City of Prince George and Babak Rezania, Ph.D., E.I.T., Dayton & Knight Ltd., Sundar Narayan, Ph.D., P.Eng. and David Dungate, M.Eng., both from First American Scientific Corporation
This paper presents the findings of a full scale pilot study to assess the feasibility of using the Micronex system to produce a Class A Biosolids.
The Micronex system consists of a rotating mechanism inside a vertical cylinder through which dewatered biosolids are passed. Temperatures inside the cylinder are high enough to produce a Class A Biosolids in a relatively short time. The Micronex process is not presently recognized as a Class A process under the Municipal Sewage Regulation. As part of the acceptance protocol, the Ministry of Environment requires that additional testing occur by spiking samples entering the Micronex unit with ascaris eggs and with the polio virus.
The paper documents the pilot study process and the results from the spike testing work. Analyses of the spiked data were carried out by Kari Kitzmorris, Sc.D., MSPH, Assistant Professor at Georgia Southern University and Janie Liotta, B.S. from the Parasitology Laboratory at Cornell University in Ithica, New York, under the direction of Bob Reimers, Ph.D., QEP, Professor from Tulane University in New Orleans. The City of Prince George retained Ron Thring, Ph.D., P.Eng., Chair, Chemistry, Environmental Science and Environmental Engineering Programs, from the University of Northern British Columbia to carry out an independent review of the pilot test work. Tests to date indicate that the Micronex system can consistently produce a Class A Biosolids. The economical feasibility of the system is currently being assessed.

For a little background on the company, FASC did have a KDS Micronex machine installed at a renewable energy co-generation powerplant in Malaysia. Because payment was not forthcoming, FASC re-couped it's KDS machine, and it was sold to Nutritech Solutions in B.C., which is an animal feed company, where it was to be used (and I'd have to assume is still used) to grind fish offal into an animal feed. Below is the relevant PR to the Malaysia effort. I have bolded the parts I found to be of particular interest.
NEWS RELEASE - June 20, 2005
First American Scientific Corp (FASC - OTCBB) announces sale and installation of the KDS Micronex MF - 777 at first biomass co-generation power plant in Malaysia.
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, June 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - First American Scientific Corp. (FASC) announced today that the first of its new model KDS - MF 777 which was designed and fabricated by its Malaysian subsidiary for the palm oil industry, has been successfully installed and is in full operation at the first ever renewable green energy co-generation power plant to be connected to the power grid in Malaysia. The 14 megawatt TSH Biomass power plant in Kunak, Sabah, Malaysia, brought online in December 2004, operates continuously, 24 hours per day, 365 days per year generating electrical energy and steam for its palm oil operations with the KDS at its core. Please see pictures on our website www.fasc.net
According to Mr. Noel Wambeck, consulting engineer and partner in FASC - Malaysia (FASCM), "the addition of the MF-777 plays an integral role in the preparation of biomass as fuel and is responsible for a 30 % increase in efficiency of the power plant's operation. A total of three (3) KDS MF-777 systems will be purchased for this location, and three more are to be purchased by its sister plant in East Malaysia. The MF - 777 model, which processes seven (7) metric tons of biomass per hour, is an up-scaled version of the KDS250 which has been adapted for use specifically in the palm oil industry."
In Malaysia, the palm oil industry generates an over abundance of readily available waste biomass in the form of empty fruit bunches (EFB), shells and fibre. The Government's Small Renewable Energy Power (SREP) programs are now supporting the creation of 500 megawatts of new green power over the next 5 years. The KDS MF-777 has proven to be a critical factor in making this process economically feasible and FASCM has identified 58 prime palm oil operations suitable for conversion to green power by recycling their own waste biomass.
FASCM expects to install 30 similar systems within the next 5 years in Malaysia alone. Other high potential markets, such as Indonesia and neighboring countries will also be the focus of FASCM marketing efforts. All machinery for these markets will be manufactured in house by FASCM, significantly enhancing profitability and the ability to deliver quality products to the region.
According to Brian Nichols, President of FASC "the success achieved today in Malaysia is just the beginning of many more biomass cogeneration projects to come, not only in Southeast Asia, but worldwide. This first installation will become the showcase for our technology proving once and for all that the KDS holds the key to successfully recycling biomass for green power generation."
First American Scientific Corp Malaysia Sdn. Bhd., the exclusive licensee for FASC in Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia, is owned 50 % by FASC. The new technology MF-777 (patents pending) is owned 100 % by FASC and will be utilized in its operations worldwide.

It's funny too how they are using Evander Holyfield to huck their wares. The Real Deal couldn't put together a swing-set, why he appeals to consumers as a pitch-man is beyond me.
He seems like a nice enough guy. Stupid, but nice. If he didn't sell out to the Chinese I'd wish him well in this endeavour.
Just so ya know cicso, I like to invest in companies that will benefit mankind, not just put my money into anything that will make a buck.
Thats great that you invest in those kind of companies...To be honest with you I hadn't even thought about it that way...
For now I am in the stock market "to make a quick buck"...but in the future as my moneys become more abundant I will definently invest in companys like rgus and regrf...
RGUS AND REGRF look like they have great potential...and benefit mankind hmmm...Are they the same company?! Cheers, Alex

Heading toward energy independence, pellet by pellet
By Scott Tedrick Staff Writer Published: Thursday, November 1, 2007 4:12 PM CDT
There is the sense that there is an enormous opportunity for local communities and businesses alike to formulate a mutually ideal future stemming from the wave of change derived from renewable energy.
With the outlook that clean renewable energy can be harvested locally, used internally, and sold externally -- entities in rural MN are working diligently to figure out how to make it all work.
The Minnesota Valley Alfalfa Producers (MnVAP) co-op in Priam is one of such companies.
Founded in 1994, MnVAP, the largest alfalfa cooperative in the United States, is hoping to branch out from its traditional practice of alfalfa and beet pulp pelletization in hopes of pelletizing bio-mass for energy.
Bio-mass is a plentiful substance in rural Minnesota. As simply organic matter that can be turned into fuel and combusted for energy, it is considered most anything sprouting from the soil.
The hope of the MnVAP is to pelletize excess bio-mass (that which does not have superior use as a food source or in restoring proper soil compositions) and to ship it to larger commercial operations such as a university or an ethanol producer, to use in heating their infrastructure or in providing energy to facilitate plant operations.
“We know that the bio-mass industry is set to explode, we want to be a part of that,” stated MnVAP General Manager Duane Hultgren.
A breakthrough
MnVAP has believed to have acquired a breakthrough in pelletization production through their purchase of a prototype Kinetic Disintegration System (KDS).
According to a MnVAP executive summary, the KDS technology was originally created for use in pulverizing ores and minerals.
Representatives of MnVAP traveled to Ontario, Canada to see the KDS in action and discovered that it was substantially superior to their existing machinery. Whereas the old infrastructure required separate operations for both the drying and compacting of material such as alfalfa, the KDS machine was able to dry and compress at once.
Hultgren stated that the KDS is much more efficient in that no natural gas is required to dry the material, it captures all dust, and there is a 20% reduction in electricity per ton. For perspective, MnVAP currently produces 40,000 tons of pelletized product per year.
With the KDS machine's obvious potential, the MnVAP co-op invited a number of politicians, DNR representatives, and members of the press to view the operation this past Friday so that MnVAP could state a case for assistance.

In all, seven senators with their respective entourage, from regions urban, which included Energy and Community Development Chair, Senator Ellen Anderson (DFL-St.Paul), and regions rural, including, Energy Subdivision Chair Senator Gary Kubly (DFL-Granite Falls).
The ‘energy' climate
The largest roadblock thus far in this field of alternative-energy production is the economic viability.
With the ingrained infrastructure, abundant raw materials, and government subsidization, oil and coal are still, by far, the most common forms energy input. Similarly Corn ethanol and soy bio-diesel, largely through the lobbying of agricultural giant Archer Daniels Midland, has come to receive substantial government subsidies that have helped to create growing numbers of ethanol plants that utilize the abundance of corn and soy produced, in particular in quantities here in the Midwest.
The price of these fuels could change with initiative such as the 25/25 Minnesota energy Mandate that reflects the growing public awareness of the environmental impact of energy sources.
Along with conflict with oil rich nations, global warming concerns led Senator Anderson to state that she felt a carbon tax would be inevitable. “Anything we have introduced which is carbon neutral is going to be much more socially acceptable,” Anderson said in accordance with bio-mass.
The knock against corn has been on its perceived effect on the inflation of prices in other industries due to the loss of a food source and animal feed, as well as on its exorbitant use of water and often mass depletion of groundwater aquifers (the ethanol plant outside of Granite Falls now receives its water for operations from the Minnesota River).
A place for pellets?
With other energy sources showing higher costs, and companies like MnVAP figuring ways to lower the expense of production, the question is, how long will it be till there is a changing of the guard?
It depends. MnVAP, having attained a valuable resource in the KDS machine is now looking to work out the logistics to see if the numbers will work out, if at all.
By seeking a million dollars from Xcel Renewable Development grant, as well as just under a million dollars from an energy related USDA/DOE grant, the co-op wants to do on-site and on-farm research.
Research will involve the testing of various bio-mass combinations (with possible inputs such as corn silage and stovers, cattails, sorghum, millet, and municipal by-products to name a few) and KDS settings to find out what creates the most energy dense, viable, and environmentally friendly energies.
MnVAP is pairing with AURI (Agriculture Utilization Research Institute) to conduct their studies.
Leaving their mark
MnVAP president Keith Poier compared ‘the farm' to a scientific classroom and Hultgren emphasized that the hope of the company was to, “develop a footprint that can be replicated”.
Poier spoke on behalf of the company stating their intent for “productive conservation.” Poier outlined three components of development that makeup the idea, they are: economic, social, and environmental development.
With 140 members a part of the co-op throughout MN and over the borders of Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota, MnVAP members are aware of their potential for impact.
“It gives us an opportunity and responsibility to help develop communities in these areas,” stated Poier. Poier went on to state the importance of investment coming to locally based entities so that the benefits were not usurped outside of MN, he used the ethanol industry as an example. “We're losing our hold on ethanol. It is important for us to keep that hold if we ever get it in the bio-mass industry,” he said.
The company still has a ways to go, as the KDS technology has yet to go online as it awaits permitting from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. And MnVAP is also working hard to attain funds for research.
Regarding the lengthy permit process, senator Anderson pointed out that, “This equipment is going to be cleaner and more efficient; it is in everybody's interest to get it going.”
MnVAP is hoping that the same statement will be able to be applied to their biomass operation. __________________

$1 million grant from Xcel Energy gives life to Priam producer’s biomass plans
Tom Cherveny West Central Tribune Published Saturday, December 08, 2007
PRIAM — Long-held aspirations by the Minnesota Valley Alfalfa Producers in Priam to create green energy on west central farms just got a $1 million boost.
Xcel Energy is awarding a $1 million grant to the farmer-owned cooperative to research its proposal to produce biomass fuel using a patented technology from Canada.
“We’re very excited,’’ said Duane Hultgren, MnVAP general manager, when contacted on Friday.
He said the company is pursuing a proposal that would convert a variety of agricultural products — such as corn stover or straw — into a pellet-form biomass fuel.
MnVAP has acquired patented technology from First American Scientific Corp of Vancouver, British Columbia. The technology is very energy efficient at “densification,’’ or converting biomass matter into pellet form.
The system uses less electricity to create pellets than other systems, and it requires no heat for drying the matter, said Hultgren. The company calls its product the KDS Micronex Reduction System, which it describes on its Web site as using extreme velocity impact mill technology to reduce material to very fine sizes.
MnVAP will research the feasibility of using any of 16 different biomass products from the farm and producing biomass pellets as a fuel for larger-scale burners.
Hultgren said there is a great deal of research needed. The grant will fund research to adapt the Canadian technology to the needs of biomass production in west central Minnesota.
Before any testing can begin, the company must obtain permits from the state. MnVAP is hoping that process can be completed by April, he added.
The grant award to MnVAP is one of 22 grants totaling nearly $23 million announced by Xcel Energy for renewable energy projects in the state.
Xcel is also awarding $979,082 to the University of Minnesota to develop the best management for harvesting biomass and for the maintenance of soil quality.
The university is working to develop the infrastructure to produce and collect biomass fuel to power and heat buildings on its Morris campus.
MnVAP doesn’t anticipate using alfalfa or the stems of the plant as a biomass fuel source, as was once considered. The company produces a variety of animal feed products from alfalfa, some of them in pellet form. The value of alfalfa is too high to justify its use as a biomass fuel, he said.
The farmer-cooperative originally purchased the Priam facility in 1996 with intentions of using a fractionation process to separate alfalfa leaves and stems. The proposal called for using the stems as an energy source to produce electricity for sale to Xcel while the leaves would continue to be sold as animal feed.

First American Scientific Corp. Reports the Sale of Two KDS Micronex Systems in December 2007
Cal Kantonen, Chairman of First American Scientific Corp. (OTCBB: FASC) is pleased to report the company has sold and shipped two KDS systems during the month of December 2007. An order for a third machine has also been received and the equipment is currently being fabricated. The first system was delivered to a group in Quebec, Canada for pulverizing construction waste and the second was delivered to a group in Mexico who plan to process agricultural waste and other biomass for use in their current business operations. Both machines will be commissioned on site in January 2008 and are expected to be fully operational by February. The third sale should complete this quarter.
According to Brian Nichols, President of FASC, "We are finally attracting serious attention from the alternative energy sector. The KDS equipment's ability to remove water while pulverizing and cleansing wood and agricultural waste has proven to be a valuable pre-treatment for end users who are developing biofuels from agri-waste. We have now sold 5 systems in the last 6 months, three sales completed and 2 sales in process, so our outlook for the future is definitely positive."
First American Scientific Corp. is the owner of a unique patented disintegration system, the KDS Micronex System, which is capable of cost effectively converting biomass and agri-waste, including animal waste, sewage, and forestry waste into a fine dry combustible powder which can be burnt in specialized dust burners, pelletized into fuel pellets or used in the process of creating biofuels.
Other applications for the KDS include reducing and drying various grades of mineral rock such as clay, zeolite, gypsum and limestone into a fine dry powder suitable for cosmetics and fertilizers. Please see our web site for further details.
