PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

SPECIAL NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

	The Company is including the following cautionary statement in this Form
10-Q to make applicable and take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking
statement made by, or on behalf of, the Company.  This 10-Q, press releases
issued by the Company, and certain information provided periodically in
writing and orally by the Company's designated officers and agents contain
statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.  The words expect, believe, goal, plan, intend, estimate,
and similar expressions and variations thereof used are intended to
specifically identify forward-looking statements. Where any such forward-
looking statement includes a statement of the assumptions or basis underlying
such forward-looking statement, the Company cautions that, while it believes
such assumptions or basis to be reasonable and makes them in good faith,
assumed facts or basis almost always vary from actual results, and the
differences between assumed facts or basis and actual results can be material,
depending on the circumstances.  Where, in any forward-looking statement, the
Company, or its management, expresses an expectation or belief as to future
results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to
have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement of
expectation or belief will result or be achieved or accomplished.

Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of such information for
interim periods.

	The unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its subsidiary.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation.

2. Revenue Recognition

	The timing of revenues is dependent on the Company's backlog, contract
awards, and the performance requirements of each contract.  The Company's
revenues are also affected by the timing of its clients planned remediation
work as well as the timing of unplanned emergency spills.  Historically,
planned remediation work generally increases during the third and fourth
quarters.  Although the Company believes that the historical trend in
quarterly revenues for the third and fourth quarters of each year are
generally higher than the first and second quarters, there can be no assurance
that this will occur in future periods.  Accordingly, quarterly or other
interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be expected
for any quarter or for the full year.

3. Related Party Transactions

	The Company purchased technical, accounting, and consulting services and
rented certain office space from a shareholder and its affiliates.  The costs
for these services amounted to $1,876 and $26,764 for the three months ended
March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

	Additionally, the Company provided $12,905 and $34,292 of remediation,
sub-contract support and project services to a shareholder and its affiliates
for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.  Services
provided were at competitive rates, which were bid on a project-by-project
basis.

	The Company purchases subcontract labor services from St. Lawrence
Industrial Services, Inc., which is owned by a director of the Company.  The
costs for these services amounted to approximately $156,000 and $206,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.  This decrease
was primarily due to the fact that the Company performed fewer asbestos
projects requiring union labor when comparing the first three months of 2001
to the same period in 2000.  The costs for these services were comparable to
those which would have been charged by a provider of labor services with no
relationship to the Company.

4. Earnings per Share

	Basic earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average shares
outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted
average shares outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of the assumed
exercise of stock options and stock warrants during the period.

5. Casualty Gain

	On January 21, 2001, a fire destroyed the offices of the Massena, NY
branch.  As of March 31, 2001, insurance proceeds had been received in the
amount of $50,127 related to the insured replacement value of the property
that was destroyed.  It is expected that additional insurance proceeds of
approximately $260,000 will be received in the second quarter of 2001.
The total of all proceeds received will be used to replace the destroyed
building and contents at substantially the same cost.  A loss on disposal of
assets, representing the net book value of all the destroyed assets as of the
date of the fire, was recorded in the amount of $6,286. Accordingly, the
Company realized a casualty gain of $43,841 as a result of proceeds collected
to date.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
	 Results of Operations.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

	At March 31, 2001, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,121 as
compared to $6,249 at December 31, 2000.

	At March 31, 2001, the Company had a working capital deficit of $628,883
compared to a deficit of $660,418 at December 31, 2000, with a current ratio
of .84 to 1 at March 31, 2001 and .86 to 1 at December 31, 2000.  The
Company's working capital deficit is primarily attributable to the fact that
the terms of the Company's revolving loan required the outstanding borrowings
on the loan to be classified as a current liability at March 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000.

	For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company's net cash provided
by operations was $300,296 compared to net cash provided by operations of
$164,511 during the three months ended March 31, 2000.  The increase in
operating cash is primarily due to the Company's improved collections of
accounts receivable, partially offset by a paydown of accounts payable.

	The Company's net cash used in investing activities of $29,052 during the
first three months of the year was attributable to the purchase of various
field and office equipment.

	Cash used in financing activities was $272,372, which was primarily due to
the net paydown of the Company's line of credit as a result of the cash
provided by operating activities.

	As of March 31, 2001, the Company had a loan agreement that provided for
borrowings up to $2,000,000 on a revolving basis, collateralized by all
accounts receivable, inventory and equipment now owned or acquired later.  As
of March 31, 2001, borrowing against the revolving loan aggregated
$1,629,405. Subsequent to March 31, 2001, the loan was renewed and is payable
on January 31, 2002.  The loan is guaranteed by a shareholder for an amount
not to exceed $500,000.

	During the first three months of 2001, all principal payments on the
Company's debt were made within payment terms.

	The Company expects, based on its efforts to improve operating results and
the continued availability of its line of credit, that it will be able to
meet obligations as they come due.

THE MASSENA PORT FACILITY

	The Massena Port Facility is a former oil tank farm which is located on
the St. Lawrence River in Massena, NY.  The property is improved with several
buildings and a deep water docking facility for large ocean going ships.
Currently, the Company uses the property for its Massena branch office
headquarters, equipment storage and its Aqueous Treatment/360 Facility.
O'Brien & Gere Property Development, a subsidiary of a shareholder of the
Company, had an option to purchase the Massena Port Facility for $2,000,000.
The option expired on December 31, 2000.

	In 1996, the Company reclassified the Massena Property to Assets Held for
Sale, at which time the property had a carrying value of approximately $1.9
million.  Due to the uniqueness of the Facility, it has been difficult to
find an alternative use for it or to sell the property.  Due to the
significance of the carrying value of the property, in March of 1997,
management obtained an independent third party appraisal to support its
carrying value.  Such appraisal included an evaluation of similar sales plus
a pending transaction at the time.  The appraisal also included an evaluation
of the time frame during which a sale would be expected.  Based upon the
appraisal report and an estimate of the costs to sell, management recognized
an impairment of $308,377 on the property during 1997.  The Company obtained
a current independent real estate appraisal of the property in January of
2000. Based upon the results of the appraisal, the Company recognized an
2001. impairment charge of $825,427 during the fourth quarter of 1999.  As of
2002. December 31, 2000, the carrying value, which management believes is
properly stated at fair market value less disposal costs, of the property is
$780,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


BILLINGS

	The Company's project billings for the first quarter of 2001 increased 6%
to $2,869,570 from $2,717,158 for the first quarter of 2000.

	When comparing the first three months of 2001 to the same period in 2000,
the overall increase in billings is due to several factors.  Revenues from
spill response and transportation and disposal increased approximately
$466,000 and $162,000 respectively.  The increase in the spill response and
transportation and disposal service lines is primarily due to the fact that
the Company's two-year emergency spill response contract with the New York
State Department of Environmental Conservation began in October of 1999, and
had not yet produced the volume in the first quarter of 2000 that the Company
experienced during the first quarter of 2001.  These increases were offset by
decreases in revenues from tank removal, cleaning and installation projects
totaling approximately $307,000. This decrease is attributable to the
completion of several large tank removal and installation projects during the
first three months of 2000.  The Company also experienced a decrease in
revenue from asbestos remediation projects of approximately $97,000.  As part
of the Company's plan to refocus its efforts on lines of work that are more
profitable, the Company is no longer pursuing tank installation work and is
being more selective in bidding on asbestos remediation projects.


PROJECT COSTS AND GROSS MARGIN

	Project costs for the first quarter of 2001 increased 2% to $1,974,643
from $1,938,795 for the same period in 2000.  Project costs as a percentage of
revenues were 69% and 71% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.  Gross margin for the first quarter of 2001 increased to 31%
from 29% for the same period in 2000.

	As a result of increased billings, project costs also increased.  The
increase in the gross margin is partly due to the Company performing fewer
public projects, particularly tank installation and large asbestos remediation
projects, when comparing the first quarter of 2001 to the same period in
These projects typically produce lower gross margins than bid work and
spill response projects.  The increase in the gross margin is also
attributable to the Company performing more work on a time-and-material
basis.  Time-and-material work typically produces higher margins than bid work.

SELLING, GENERAL,  ADMINISTRATIVE AND INTEREST EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for the quarter ended
March 31, 2001 increased 23% to $819,493 from $668,007 for the same period in
2000. SG&A as a percentage of revenues increased to 29% versus 25% for the
2001. three months ended March 31, 2000.




                                          11
<PAGE>

When comparing the first three months of 2001 to the same period in 2000, the
overall increase in SG&A is due to several factors.  First, Payroll expense
and related payroll taxes and benefits, increased $66,828.  During the fourth
quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2001, several new employees were
added in the Plattsburgh, Albany, Rochester, NY and Edison, NJ branch offices.
Each of these offices added new employees as a result of increased sales
volume and long-term growth plans.  As is customary in adding new employees,
it takes approximately six months for a new employee to meet the company's
chargeability goals as set forth in the operating budget.  Second, occupancy
expense increased $28,590, primarily due to the relocation of the Albany, NY
and Braintree, MA branches to larger offices with higher rent than the
previous locations.  Third, Professional fees increased $15,740 primarily due
to various fees paid to consultants and others during the first three months
of 2001 that were not paid in the same period of 2000 as well as an increase
in the monthly accruals related to legal and audit fees.  Fourth,
Depreciation expense increased $18,065 primarily due to the purchase of
several large field vehicles subsequent to March 31, 2000.

INTEREST EXPENSE

	Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2001 decreased 12%
to $60,486 from $68,684 for the same period in 2000.  The decrease in
interest expense was primarily due to the decrease in the Company's average
outstanding balance on the revolving loan as well as a lower average
principal balance owed on long-term debt.

  CASUALTY GAIN

	On January 21, 2001, a fire destroyed the offices of the Massena, NY
branch.  As of March 31, 2001, insurance proceeds had been received in the
amount of $50,127 related to the insured replacement value of the property
that was destroyed.  It is expected that additional insurance proceeds of
approximately $260,000 will be received in the second quarter of 2001. The
total of all proceeds received will be used to replace the destroyed building
and contents at substantially the same cost.  A loss on disposal of assets,
representing the net book value of all the destroyed assets as of the date of
the fire, was recorded in the amount of $6,286. Accordingly, the Company
realized a casualty gain of $43,841 as a result of proceeds collected to date.

   NET INCOME

	The net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $53,429, or
$0.00 per share (basic and diluted), compared to net income of $51,174, or
$0.00 per share (basic and diluted), for the same period in 2000.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

	There were no material changes in the Company's market risk or market risk
strategies during the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
