EXHIBIT 31.1 CEO CERTIFICATION

                                CEO CERTIFICATION

I, Timothy J. Koziol certify that:

     1.  I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of General
         Environmental Management, Inc. of Nevada;

     2.  Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any
         untrue statements of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
         necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances
         under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to
         the period covered by this quarterly report;

     3.  Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
         information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all
         material respects the financial condition, results of operations, and
         cash flows of the small business issuer as of, and for, the periods
         presented in this quarterly report;

     4.  I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls
         and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and
         15d-15(e)) for the small business issuer and have:

         a.   Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
              disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under my
              supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
              small business issuer, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
              made known to me by others within those entities, particularly
              during the period in which this quarterly report is being
              prepared;

         b.   Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's
              disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report
              our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
              and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report
              based on such evaluation; and

         c.   Disclosed in this report any changes in the small business
              issuer's internal control over financial reporting that occurred
              during the small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the
              small business issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an
              annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably
              likely to materially affect, the small business issuer's internal
              control over financial reporting; and

     5.  I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation, to the small
         business issuer's auditors and the audit committee of small business
         issuer's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
         functions):

         a.   All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design
              or operation of internal control over financial reporting which
              are reasonably likely to adversely affect the small business
              issuer's ability to record, process, summarize and report
              financial information; and

         b.   Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
              other employees who have a significant role in the small business
              issuer's internal control over financial reporting.
