ITEM 5.       OTHER EVENTS

              On November 22, 1999, the Registrant received a letter dated
              November 17, 1999 from Frederick H. Kurtz stating that Mr. Kurtz,
              a Class III member of the Board of Directors, was resigning his
              position on the Board. The letter is attached hereto as Exhibit
              99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

              Mr. Kurtz's resignation was the result of a potential conflict of
              interest and not the result of a disagreement with the Registrant
              on any matter relating to the Registrant's operations, policies
              or practices.


                                    SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

                        N-VIRO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
