National Oil Shale Association Update
Here is an update on progress at the National Oil Shale Association (NOSA).

Since beginning full operations on January 1, 2008 we have accomplished the
following:

• Created two Fact Sheets: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS and STRATEGIC
  IMPORTANCE OF OIL SHALE.
• Created a press release announcing NOSA becoming active.
• Completed a professional Web Site in April. [www.oilshaleassoc.org]
• Signed up for booths at three energy expos: Grand Junction (Feb 22nd), Rifle
  (Apr 30th) and Vernal (May 21st & 22nd).
• Signed up seven Sustaining Members and eleven Associate Members.
  Seeking more members in both categories via e-mails and through personal contact.
• Submitted comments on the oil shale leasing PEIS for NOSA
  concentrating on correcting factual errors in Appendix A, collected comments from others, and transmitted them to the membership.
• Distributed the first NOSA Quarterly Newsletter in April.

The actions we contemplate in the near future are as follows:

• Create additional Fact Sheets (suggested topics would be
  appreciated).
• Complete a Power Point presentation for speaker's bureau.
• Interact with the public by attending meetings, making presentations
  and answering questions.
• Expand membership and investigate other funding sources.

Thank you for your participation in NOSA. If you have questions or suggestions about our future actions please call or e-mail:
