August 25, 2008 - Online Video Service, Inc. (OVS), the trusted leader in Internet broadcasting, reported today that it has been selected to greatly increase its webcasting of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) public proceedings.

Since 2004, OVS has been the exclusive Internet broadcasting provider for the NRC. The company's Location-based Solution(TM), managed remotely from its Seattle-based Broadcast Operations Center(TM), handles live webcasting of NRC meetings on a regular basis from NRC's primary venue in Rockville, Maryland, U.S.A. OVS' expanded scope includes expansion of the Location-based Solution(TM) to deliver simultaneous live webcasting of NRC proceedings from multiple venues.

"We are very pleased to assist the NRC in extending broader access of its proceedings to stakeholders across the United States and around the world," remarked OVS Chairman and CEO Tim Treanor. "The NRC was one of the first federal entities to realize how webcasting would dramatically increase government transparency and openness."

OVS President Matt Eldridge, who runs the company's international business from its offices in Amsterdam observed, "Through webcasting, the NRC established the 'gold standard' for good government that other top-tier agencies, departments and legislative bodies worldwide are starting to follow." He added, "The NRC's broad expansion of Internet broadcasting is an unmistakable bellwether for participatory democracy around the globe."

The NRC's primary mission is to protect the public health and safety, and the environment from the effects of radiation from nuclear reactors, materials, and waste facilities.
