Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a)  On April 19, 2012, Terra Tech Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), notified Seale and Beers, CPAs (“Seale and Beers”), that the Company had dismissed Seale and Beers as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company.  The Board of Directors of the Company recommended and approved the dismissal.

The reports of Seale and Beers regarding the Company’s financial statements as of September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period from July 22, 2008 (inception) through September 30, 2011, contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.  The reports of Seale and Beers, however, stated that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

From the period as of, and from, July 22, 2008 (inception) through September 30, 2011, and during the subsequent interim period through the date of dismissal, the Company had no disagreement with Seale and Beers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Seale and Beers, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the Company’s financial statements for such period from July 22, 2008 (inception) through September 30, 2011.  There were no reportable events, as listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company provided Seale and Beers a copy of the above disclosures and requested Seale and Beers to furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the above statements.  Seale and Beers’s response is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
 
(b) On April 16, 2012 the Board of Directors of the Company resolved to engage the independent registered public accounting firm of Tarvaran, Askelson & Company, LLP (“Tarvaran Askelson”), the Company’s new independent registered public accountants, which appointment Tarvaran, Askelson has accepted with the dismissal of Seale and Beers.

During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding the engagement of Tarvaran Askelson, the Company has not consulted with Tarvaran Askelson regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by Tarvaran Askelson or (iii) any other matter that was the subject of disagreement between the Company and its former auditor as described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv), or a reportable event as described in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v), of Regulation S-K.   The Company did not have any disagreements with Seale and Beers and therefore did not discuss any past disagreements with Tarvaran Askelson.
