Active Control Technology Inc. (the "Company" or "Active Control") (TSX
VENTURE:ACT), today announced that several of the Company's clients, producing
coal for their internal Power Generation operations, have divested themselves of
their mining operations over the last week. These mines represent the majority
of Active Control's ActiveMine revenues. The financial impact of these
transactions will be determined over the next 3 - 6 months. 


The impact of the United States of America's legislative transition away from
coal in American power plants is having an immediate negative impact on coal
mining operations and coal prices and is expected to have a negative impact on
the business of the Company.
