ITEM  5.     OTHER  EVENTS

N-Viro International Corporation (the "Company") announced today the 2003 Annual
Stockholders Meeting will be held on November 13, 2003, as approved by the Board
of Directors at a meeting on July 1, 2003.  This is the second delay in the date
of  the  annual  meeting  approved  by the Board.  The November 13, 2003 date is
approximately  186  days  later  than  the  2003  meeting date referenced in the
Company's 2002 Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement dated April 5, 2002,
and  approximately  91  days  later  than August 14, 2003, the date announced on
March  19, 2003.  The reasons cited by the Board for delaying the annual meeting
include  the  following:  (1) the Company is planning on amending its 1998 Stock
Option  Plan,  which expired in May of 2003, and additional time is necessary to
finalize  the  form  of the amendment prior to submitting it to shareholders for
approval;  (2)  the  Company's  directors  are  planning  an  amendment  to  the
Company's  Certificate  of  Incorporation  and  By-Laws  to change the number of
directors  on  its Board, and, any actions approved by the Board with respect to
amending the Company's Certificate of Incorporation would need to be approved by
the  shareholders  at  the annual meeting in order to be effective; and  (3) the
Company  believes  that  by  delaying  the  annual  meeting it will realize cost
savings  through  an enhanced ability to rely upon internal resources to prepare
and  administer  the  proxy  documents  and other public filings, as compared to
solely  relying  on  outside  legal  counsel  to  prepare  such  items.

As  such,  the Board of Directors advises that it has not extended the effective
dates  for  shareholder  proposals intended for inclusion in the Company's proxy
materials  for  the  2003  Annual  Meeting.  Unless  the  Company had been given
written  notice by May 26, 2003 of a shareholder proposal to be presented at the
2003  Annual  Meeting  other  than  by means of inclusion in the Company's proxy
materials  for  the meeting, persons named in the proxies solicited by the Board
of  Directors  for  the  meeting may use their discretionary voting authority to
vote  against  the  proposal.
