BOSTON – August 20,2008 – Earth Search Sciences, Inc. [OTCBB:ESSE], a technology company focused on the development of domestic, inland oil resources, today announced the appointment of a key addition to its senior management team. Michael D. Lockhart has been appointed as Earth Search’s Chief Scientist.

As Chief Scientist, Lockhart is responsible for developing and implementing a comprehensive technology strategy for Earth Search (ESSI). Lockhart has developed more than 30 patentable technologies in various technology fields and has extensive experience running R&D projects for General Dynamics and several government agencies. Luis Lugo, CEO of ESSI, believes Lockhart’s expertise in environmental impact assessments will help ESSI in its efforts to develop technologies that contribute economically, without the environmental impacts normally associated with petrochemical resource development.

“In the end, the technologies and subsequent applications we develop will be subject to strict environmental scrutiny”, said Lugo. “We want to make sure ESSI leads the way in creating zero footprint standards and practices that serve as a benchmark for the industry as a whole” Lugo said Lockhart’s appointment comes at a critical juncture as ESSI closes in its proof-of-concept gasification technology testing scheduled for the fall.

“Michael’s impressive technology background will make crucial contributions in helping to originate and direct R&D efforts for our patented gasification process and our patented ultraspectral remote sensing instruments.”

“I have had the pleasure of working as a consultant on a key ESSI project for several months and am extremely excited to help advance the company’s technologies that have the potential to promote environmentally-sound domestic oil production and national security,” said Lockhart.

Lockhart has 28 years of experience as a senior analyst and research scientist in biosurveillance and information analysis, environmental engineering, synthetic organic and analytical chemistry fields, applied optical physics, and in the defense industry.

Lockhart has provided environmental and occupational health consulting services for many local, state, federal, and private agencies and industries – many of those services focused on environmental compliance and site analysis, environmental evaluations, indoor air quality assessments, and EPA and OSHA industrial training. Lockhart holds an M.A. in Chemistry from the University of Virginia.
