                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Shareholders and Board of Directors
Dames & Moore Group

   We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Dames & Moore Group
and subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying index. In connection with our
audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the
financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index. These
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

   In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dames &
Moore Group and subsidiaries as of March 26, 1999 and March 27, 1998 and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended March 26, 1999 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement
schedule, when conside
red in relation to the basic consolidated financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               (In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation:

   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-
owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Investments in companies in which
Dames & Moore Group (the "Company") does not have control, but has the ability
to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are
accounted for by the equity method. Other investments are accounted for by the
cost method. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated. Certain items in the pri
or years' financial statements have been
reclassified to be consistent with the 1999 presentation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements:

   The preparation of the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions
used in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

   Cash and cash equivalents consist of unrestricted deposits with banks and
highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Marketable Securities:

   Marketable securities consist of equity and debt securities that are
considered either available-for-sa
le or trading securities as defined by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 115. Debt securities with
maturity dates beyond a year are classified as Other Assets. Marketable
securities are recorded at fair market value. Changes in unrealized gains and
losses for trading securities are included in earnings; for available-for-sale
securities, they are charged or credited as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income, net of tax. A decline in the fair value of an available-
for-sale security below cost that is deemed other than temporary is charged to
earnings. Management determines the appropriate classifications of investments
at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designations as of each balance
sheet date.

Depreciation and Amortization:

   Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over
estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years and leasehold improvements
are amortized over the lesser of estimated useful lives or the term of the
lease.

Goodwill of Acquired Businesses:

   The goodwill of acquired businesses represents the difference between the
purchase cost and the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses, and
is being amortized on a straight-line basis over

based upon undiscounted forecasted operating earnings over the remaining
amortization period for each investment having a significant goodwill balance.
If an impairment in the value of the goodwill were to occur, the Company would
reflect the impairment through a reduction in the carrying value of the
goodwill based upon the estimated fair value of the investment.

Foreign Currency Translation:

   The functional currencies for
 the Company's significant foreign subsidiaries
and branches are their respective local currencies. The assets and liabilities
of these entities are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in
effect at period end. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average rates
of exchange prevailing during the period. The resulting translation adjustments
are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of
tax. In situations where the functional currency is the U.S. dollar,
translation adjustments are included in earnings.

   The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to
reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on certain project revenues
and costs, and the asset and liability positions of foreign subsidiaries. The
terms of the currency derivatives are generally one year or less. Commencing in
fiscal 1997 the gains or losses from these contracts are generally also
reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity; previously they we
re
included in earnings.

Recognition of Revenue:

   The Company recognizes revenue generally at the time services are performed.
On fixed price contracts, revenue is recognized on the basis of the estimated
percentage of completion of services rendered. On cost reimbursement contracts,
revenue is recognized as costs are incurred and includes applicable fees earned
essentially in the proportion that costs incurred bear to total estimated final
costs. Materials and subcontract costs reimbursed by clients are included in
gross revenues. Anticipated losses are recognized in the period in which the
losses are reasonably determinable. Substantially all unbilled receivables are
expected to be collected within the next 12 months and retentions at the close
of the respective project. Approximately $7,157 of unbilled receivables and
contract retentions not collectible within 12 months have been classified as
other assets.

   A major portion of contracts with the United States Government, are subject
to audit
 and adjustment. Revenue has been recorded in amounts expected to be
realized on final settlement.

Income Taxes:

   The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes." Tax provisions are recorded at statutory rates
for taxable items included in the consolidated statements of earnings
regardless of the period such items are reported for tax purposes. Deferred
income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between financial
statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities for which income tax
effects will be realized in future years.

Note 1--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (continued)


Stock-Based Compensation:

   Prior to March 30, 1996, the Company accounted for its stock option plan in
accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related
interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of
grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the
exercise price. On March 30, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compe
nsation," which permits entities to recognize
as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on
the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue
to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net income
and proforma earning per share disclosures for employee stock option grants
made in fiscal 1996 and future years as if the fair-value-based method defined
in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to continue to apply
the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure
provisions of SFAS No. 123.

Earnings Per Share:

   Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
earnings per share adjusts the weighted-average number of common shares to
reflect the potential dilution that could occur if restricted stock was
unrestricted and the assumed exercise of the dilutive stock options
outstanding
 . This change did not have a material impact on the computation of
the earnings per share data.

Comprehensive Income:

   The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," which establishes new standards for reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components. Other comprehensive income
refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted
accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but are excluded
from net earnings as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to
shareholders' equity. The Company adopted SFAS No. 130 in fiscal 1999. The
Company's other comprehensive income is primarily comprised of foreign currency
translation adjustments, unrealized gain or loss on securities, and adjustments
made to recognize additional minimum liabilities associated with the Company's
defined benefit pension plans. Reclassifications related to the components of
other comprehensive income were not significant
 .

Segment and Related Information:

   In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which
established new standards for reporting information about operating segments in
interim and annual financial statements, in accordance with the "management
approach," The management approach designates the internal reporting that is
used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as
the source of the Company's reportable segments. The Company adopted SFAS No.
131 with its annual financial

statements ending March 26, 1999 which did affect the disclosure of segment
information but did not affect results of operations or the financial position
of the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

   In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which requires
that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure all derivatives at
 fair value.
Implementation of this statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 1999 commencing with interim periods. The Company is in the process of
determining the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have on its
financial position and results of operations.

Fiscal Year:

   The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending the last Friday in March.
The fiscal years were comprised of 52 weeks in 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Note 2--Acquisitions:

   On July 31, 1998, the Company acquired all of the membership interests of
Radian International LLC ("Radian"), a multinational engineering, consulting
and construction firm. The purchase price of $117 million in cash is subject to
a post-closing adjustment which is currently under discussion with the seller.
The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired, plus
estimated office closure costs and severance costs are classified as goodwill
and are being amortized over 40 years.

   The Company also comple
ted thirteen smaller acquisitions during fiscal 1999
for $16,555 one of which included the issuance of 157,991 shares of the
Company's treasury stock. Seven of the acquisitions have additional future
payments contingent on future earnings. The total purchase cost in excess of
fair value of identifiable assets acquired is classified as goodwill and is
being amortized over the period of expected benefit, which range from 3 to 25
years.

   The Company also completed six smaller acquisitions during fiscal 1998 for
$5,740 one of which included the issuance of 163,107 shares of the Company's
treasury stock. Four of the acquisitions have additional future payments
contingent on future earnings. The total purchase cost in excess of fair value
of identifiable assets acquired is classified as goodwill and is being
amortized over the period of expected benefit, which range from 3 to 20 years.

   On June 24, 1997, the Company acquired SRA Technologies, Inc., a
professional services company providing specialized
clinical laboratory
services, contract research, analysis and management services in the areas of
life sciences, environmental health service studies, and energy. The purchase
price of $8,924 was paid in cash, and no additional payments are due. The
purchase price in excess of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired
is classified as goodwill and is being amortized over 30 years.

               (In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 4--Investments in Affiliates:


   The Company through its subsidiary Dames & Moore Ventures has a 50% interest
in Dames & Moore/ Brookhill L.L.C. (DMB) and affiliated companies. DMB was
formed to acquire environmentally impaired properties and to remediate; to
develop, redevelop, or reposition; and to maintain, operate and lease such
properties until their disposition. DMB acquires an interest in assets by
purchasing either a fee interest or a property-related mortgage note. At March
26, 1999, DMB holds 6 assets. Effective January 1, 1999, DMB agreed to complet
e
the redevelopment and disposition of existing assets, and to cease the
acquisition of any new assets.

   Acquisitions have been financed 75% with senior debt, 20% subordinated debt
and 5% equity from DMB. The senior debt bears interest at London Interbank
Offshore Rate (LIBOR) plus 275 basis points, and requires monthly payments of
principal and interest. Cash flow from the properties, including sale proceeds
will generally be distributed 80% to the subordinated lender and 20% to DMB,
until the subordinated lender and DMB each receives its loan advances or
capital contributions, and a return on investment of 20% per annum. Thereafter,
cash flow will be distributed 50% to the subordinated lender and DMB. The
borrowings are all due on December 31, 1999, but may be extended under certain
terms and conditions.

   The Company accounts for its investment of $1,388 in fiscal 1999 and $3,144
in fiscal 1998 in DMB under the equity method of accounting. Condensed
financial information follows:

   The funding of the Radian acquisition resulted in the early extinguishment
of the Company's Senior Notes and certain bank lines of credit. Pre-payment
obligations and deferred financing costs resulted in a pretax charge of $4,587;
after the tax benefit of $1,737, the extraordinary charge was $2,850, or ($.16)
per share, basic and diluted.

   The Company's amended long-term debt facility includes a term commitment of
$265,000 and a revolving commitment of $75,000. Interest is charged under
several options, including a base rate or at LIBOR, plus the applicable margin,
at the Company's option. Interest is payable quarterly for base rate borrowings
and for LIBOR borrowings the earlier of the last day of the interest rate
period or three months from the first day of the interest rate period. The
effective interest rate was 6.8% at March 26, 1999. The agreement contains
limitations on additional indebtedness, sales of assets, acquisitions and
capital expenditures, as
 well as maintenance of certain financial ratios. The
Company was in compliance with all such ratios at March 26, 1999. The term loan
requires quarterly principal payments commencing on June 30, 1999, with $40,000
of the unpaid balance due on June 30, 2004 and the remaining unpaid balance of
$94,500 due in full on December 31, 2004. The revolving commitment matures on
June 30, 2004. Furthermore, mandatory principal pre-payments or commitment
reductions are required in the event of the occurrence of certain transactions,
as defined in the agreement. As of March 26, 1999, under these lines, the
Company had borrowings of $302,232, and standby letters of credit totaling
$14,156 principally for project performance, advance payment guarantees and the
Company's domestic insurance program. The fair value of the Company's long-term
debt approximates carrying value based on current rates offered to the Company
for debt of the same remaining maturities.

   Annual maturities of long-term debt over the next five fi
scal years are as
follows: 2000--$18,433; 2001--$16,147; 2002--$26,000; 2003--$36,000; and 2004--
$41,000.

Note 7--Foreign Currency Contracts:


   In the past, the Company has entered into foreign exchange forward
contracts, all having maturities of less than one year. The amounts noted below
serve solely as a basis for the calculation of payment streams to be exchanged.
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counter
parties for these contracts. The Company selects major international banks and
financial institutions as counter parties to manage this credit risk.
Transaction gains and losses including the effect of foreign currency contra
cts
and currency exchange rate conversion were a gain of $3 in 1999, a loss of $206
in 1998, and a loss of $222 in 1997. The Company did not have any open foreign
currency contracts at March 26, 1999.

Note 8--Fair Values of Financial Instruments:

   The carrying amount of marketable securities is based on quoted market
prices at the reporting date for those investments and as such equal fair
value. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on
current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities,
which approximates carrying value.
 All other financial instruments bear
relatively short-term maturities, and accordingly, the carrying amount of these
investments approximates fair value.

   Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences in the timing of the
recognition of revenues and expenses for financial statement and tax return
purposes. Management believes that it is more likely than not, that the results
of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the
deferred tax assets. The significant components of deferred taxes were as
follows:

Note 10--Lease Commitments:


   The Company is obligated under various noncancelable leases for office
facilities, furniture and equipment. Certain leases contain renewal options,
escalation clauses and certain other operating expenses of the properties. In
the normal course of business, leases that expire are expected to be renewed
or replaced by leases for other properties.

   The following is a schedule by year of future rental payments required
under operating leases that have initial or remaining noncancelable lease
terms in excess of one year as of March 26,

   The Company in the ordinary course of business is a defendant in various
lawsuits involving claims typically filed against the engineering and
consulting professions, primarily alleging professional errors or omissions.
The Company thr
ough a wholly owned subsidiary insures the Company's risks for
professional liability, workers compensation, and general and automobile
claims up to certain policy limits. Claims in excess of these limits are
covered by unrelated insurance carriers. Management makes estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of liability and the disclosure of
contingent liabilities. As claims develop, it is possible that the ultimate
results of these claims may differ from management's estimates. In the opinion
of management, based upon information it presently possesses, the resolution
of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

employees of the Company, has authorized and reserved a total of 2,700,000
shares of common stock for issuance under this Plan. Stock options granted or
restricted stock sold under the Plan may be granted or sold at a price and for
such terms as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors.

   Restricted stock sales are offered to newly elected officers and existing
officers, these shares are subject to restrictions on transfer and risk of
forfeiture until earned by continued employment. Should employme
nt terminate
before ownership vests, shares are repurchased by the Company at the lesser of
the price originally paid for the stock or its market value on the date of
termination. During the restriction period, holders have the rights of
shareholders, including the right to vote and receive dividends, but cannot
transfer ownership. Restricted stock is generally being issued at 67% of market
value on the date of issuance for newly elected officers and at no cost to
existing officers, the stock vests 3 years after the issue date. These
restricted stock sales give rise to unearned compensation that is amortized
over the vesting period. Through March 26, 1999, 290,863 shares of restricted
stock have been issued under the Plan.

Note 12--Stock Option Plans: (continued)


 Pro-Forma Disclosure

   The Company continues to apply APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for both of
its stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been
recognized for the stock option plans. There was no material difference in the
Company's earnings or earnings per share had the stock option plans determined
compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the
method of SFAS No. 123.

Note 13--Employee Retirement Plans:

   The Company and its domestic subsidiaries ha
ve several defined contribution
retirement plans covering substantially all of the Company's U.S. employees
with a minimum service requirement. Depending upon the plan, eligible employees
can invest up to 15% of their earnings; certain plans will match by an equal
amount from the Company generally up to the first 3% to 4.5% of the employee's
contribution. Employer matching contributions for fiscal years 1999, 1998, and
1997 were $6,641, $2,930 and $3,315, respectively. Profit-sharing contributions
to all plans are currently discretionary. However, prior to January 1, 1997 the
largest of the plans had a profit-sharing contribution that was computed in
accordance with a formula (set forth in the Plan) to provide for an annual
contribution of 6% of pre-tax earnings, as defined. The contributions for 1999,
1998, and 1997 were $218, $1,381 and $1,684, respectively.

   Certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries have trusteed retirement plans
covering substantially all of their employees. These pension pla
ns are not
required to report to government agencies pursuant to ERISA and do not
otherwise determine the actuarial value of accumulated benefits or net assets
available for benefits. The aggregate pension expense for these plans for
fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997 were $1,711, $1,498, and $1,719, respectively.

   The Company, upon acquiring Radian, assumed certain of Radian's defined
benefit pension plans, including several post-retirement benefit plans. These
plans cover a select group of Radian employees and former employees who will
continue to be eligible to participate in the plans.

   The defined benefit plans include a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
(SERP) and Salary Continuation Agreement (SCA) which are intended to supplement
retirement benefits provided by other benefit plans upon the participant's
meeting minimum age and years of service requirements. The plans are unfunded,
however, at March 26, 1999, the Company had designated and deposited $6,309 in
a trust account for the SER
P. Radian also has a post-retirement benefit program
that provides certain medical insurance benefits to participants upon meeting
minimum age and years of service requirements, this plan is also unfunded.

   The Company recorded an additional minimum liability net of tax of $1,057 at
March 26, 1999 as a component of comprehensive income. This amount represents
the excess of the accumulated benefit obligations over the fair value of plan
assets to the extent possible because the asset recognized may not exceed the
amount of unrecognized prior service cost.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
               (In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 16--Stock Repurchases:


   The Company's Board of Directors authorized the Company to purchase up to
2,500,000 shares of its common stock on the open market. During fiscal 1999 the
Company reacquired 67,000 shares of its common stock. As of March 26, 1999 the
Company had repurchased 1,914,000 shares and reissued 1,132,000 shares. The
Company may continue to purchase shares on the open market.

Note 17--Common and Preferred Stock:

   The Company adopted a Shareholder's Rights Agreement on March 28, 1997
granting, for each outstanding share of common stock, on
e stock purchase right
(each a "Right"). Each Right entitles the common stockholder to purchase, in
certain circumstances generally relating to a change in control of the Company,
one two-hundredth of a share of the Company's Series A Junior Participating
Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock") at
the exercise price of $65 per share, subject to adjustment. Alternatively, the
Right holder may purchase common stock of the Company having a market value
equal to two times the exercise price, or may purchase shares of common stock
of the acquiring corporation having a market value equal to two times the
exercise price.

   The Series A Preferred Stock confers to its holders rights as to dividends,
voting and liquidation that are in preference to common stockholders. The
Rights are nonvoting, are not presently exercisable and currently trade in
tandem with the common shares. The Rights may be redeemed at $0.01 per Right by
the Company in accordance with the Rights Agreement
 . The Rights will expire on
March 28, 2007, unless earlier exchanged or redeemed.

   The Rights Agreement was amended on May 5, 1999 excepting from the
definition of a change in control of the Company, the contemplated Agreement
and Plan of Merger of the Company with URS Corporation and Demeter Acquisition
Corporation.

Note 18--Acquisition Restructuring and Other Charges:

   During the second quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company took a charge for
purchased in-process research and development technology that had not reached
technological feasibility of $15,271. Additionally, the Company began
consolidation of certain facilities and operations primarily as a result of the
Radian acquisition, resulting in a charge of $9,213. This charge consisted of
$2,699 for lease termination, $3,635 for severance costs, and $2,879 for
unamortized goodwill and other costs related to the closure of certain business
units that were operating at a loss and were duplicative of Radian's
capabilities. Other charges also in
cluded $3,792 for consolidation of certain
of the Company's operational activities and other job related costs.
Approximately $5,892 remains to be expended at March 26, 1999 to complete the
restructuring.

   In fiscal 1997 the Company determined it was necessary to restructure its
international operations, and construction and project management subsidiary.
Included in the 1997 restructuring costs are employee severance and termination
costs, costs associated with office closures, losses on work in progress where
there was extensive employee turnover and losses on other current assets, all
of which impact the Company's working capital. The remaining balance represents
losses on long-term assets.

Note 19 - Subsequent Events

Merger

On May 5, 1999, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
Merger Agreement) with URS Corporation (URS) and on May 11, 1999, URS commenced
a tender offer for all the Company's outstanding stock at a price of $16.00 per
share.  On June 9, 1999, URS purchased 96% of the Company's common stock
pursuant to the tender offer.  Accordingly, the Company became a subsidiary of
URS.

Guarantee of Indebtedness

On June 18, 1999, URS completed a private placement of $200 million principal
amount of Senior Subordinated Notes due 2009 (the Notes). The Notes are fully
and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by certain of URS's
wholly-owned subsidiaries including certain guaranteeing subsidiaries
 of the
Company ("Guarantors").

The following information sets forth the condensed consolidating balance sheets
of the Company as of March 26, 1999 and March 27, 1998 and the condensed
consolidating statements of operations and cash flows for each of the years in
the three-year period ended March 26, 1999.  Investments are accounted for on an
equity method, accordingly adjustments necessary to reflect the Company and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis are reflected in the eliminations column.
