                  INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT



Board of Directors
Magnum Environmental Services, Inc. and Related Entities
Pompano Beach, Florida


         We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Magnum
Environmental Services, Inc. and Related Entities as of December 31, 1998 and
1997 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity
and partners' capital, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the companies' management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the combined financial statements
based on our audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 combined balance sheets referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Magnum
Environmental Services, Inc. and Related Entities as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the results of their combined operations and their combined cash flows
for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

           USE OF ESTIMATES
           The preparation of 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

           for individual income taxes on their respective shares of the
           companies' taxable income.

           Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been
           reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

           covenants. The agreement also provides the company an additional line
           of credit to finance purchases of equipment.

           liabilities of MPR became the property of MES and are reflected on
           the Balance Sheet of MES at December 31, 1997. Accordingly,

NOTE K -   YEAR 2000
           The company recently replaced its computer system to be year 2000
           compliant. The company has not been informed of any material risks
           associated with its customers regarding year 2000 compliance, however
           there is no guarantee that such risks do not exist and will not have
           an adverse effect on operations. Management is continuing to assess
           any impact from its vendors and third party payers. Due to the nature
           of the companies' operations, it is not anticipated that any impact
           would be material, however the cost of a potential impact is not
           determinable.

Board of Directors
Magnum Environmental Services, Inc. and Related Entities
Pompano Beach, Florida


         We have reviewed the accompanying combined balance sheets of Magnum
Environmental Services, Inc. and Related Entities as of June 30, 1999 and 1998
and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and
partners' capital, and cash flows for the six months then ended, in accordance
with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. All information included in these financial statements is the
representation of the management of Magnum Environmental Services, Inc. and
Related Entities.

         A review consists principally of inquiries of company personnel and
analytical procedures applied to the financial data. It is substantially less in
scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial
statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

         Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications
that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principals.

         We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the combined balance sheets as of December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the related combined statements of operations, changes in
stockholder's equity and partners' capital and cash flows for the years then
ended (presented elsewhere in this filing); and in our report dated March 12,
1999, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those combined financial
statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
================================================================================
NOTE A -   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
           METHOD OF ACCOUNTING

           The companies prepare their financial statements on the accrual
           basis of accounting.

           The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all
           adjustments of a normal and recurring nature which are, in the
           opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial
           position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for
           the interim periods presented. The results of operations for these
           periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results
           of any other interim period or for the fiscal year as a whole.

           PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION

           The accompanying financial statements reflect the combined financial
           statements of Magnum Environmental Services, Inc., (MES) Magnum
           World Enterprises, Inc., Magnum East Coast Properties, Ltd., J.A.G.
           Associates, Ptr., Magnum Northeast Properties, Ltd. and Magnum West
           Coast Properties, Ltd. The individual entities have the same
           ownership and management and share common facilities and personnel.
           All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

           SEGMENT DATA, GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

           The companies do business primarily in the United States. One
           customer accounted for 10% of the companies' sales for the six
           months ended June 30, 1999. Two customers accounted for 20% of
           accounts receivable as of June 30, 1999.

           CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

           Financial instruments which potentially expose the companies to
           significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of
           bank deposits, temporary investments and accounts receivable. Cash
           is placed primarily in high quality short-term interest bearing
           financial instruments and may periodically exceed federally insured
           amounts.

           The companies perform ongoing credit evaluations of their customers'
           financial condition. An allowance for uncollectible accounts
           receivable is maintained based upon the expected collectibility of
           all accounts receivable.

           CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

           Cash and cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of
           deposit, and all highly liquid debt instruments with original
           maturities of three months or less.

           INVENTORY

           Inventory consists of waste oil and drums held for sale and is
           valued at the lower of cost or market.

           PROPERTY, PLANT, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION

           Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated
           depreciation computed on the straight line and accelerated methods
           based on estimated useful lives as follows:

<TABLE>
                 <S>                                     <C>
                  Automobiles                                   5 Years
                  Building and Leasehold Improvements     31 - 40 Years
                  Computer Equipment                            5 Years
                  Equipment - Other                        5 - 15 Years
                  Equipment - Transportation               5 - 10 Years
                  Furniture and Fixtures                   5 - 12 Years
                  Tanks                                        20 Years
</TABLE>

           Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense. The cost of
           equipment retired or otherwise disposed of and the related
           accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.- continued -

           INTANGIBLES

           Intangibles are recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization
           based on estimated useful lives as follows:

</TABLE>

           USE OF ESTIMATES

           The preparation of 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

August 31, 1999.

         The actual allocation of the purchase price and the resulting effect on
income or loss from operations may differ significantly from the pro forma
amounts included herein. These pro forma adjustments represent the Company's
preliminary determination of purchase accounting adjustments and are based upon
available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes to be
reasonable. Consequently, the amounts reflected in the Pro Forma Financial
Statements are subject to change, and the final amounts may differ
substantially.

         The accompanying Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1998 and for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 assume that the acquisition of Magnum took place on
January 1, 1998, the beginning of the Company's fiscal year. The Pro Forma
Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations do not include the effect of any
nonrecurring write-offs directly attributable to the acquisition. The Pro Forma
Balance Sheet gives pro forma effect to the acquisition of Magnum as if the
transaction occurred on June 30, 1999.

         The accompanying pro forma information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and is not indicative of the financial position or results of
operations that may be reported in the future. The accompanying Pro Forma
Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the historical
financial statements and related notes thereto of the Company as reported in the
annual Form 10K and the quarterly Form 10Q's and the audited and interim
reviewed financial reports included herein.

         (b)      The acquisition of Magnum was accounted for by the purchase
                  method of accounting. Under purchase accounting, the total
                  purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible
                  assets and liabilities of Magnum based upon their respective
                  fair values as of the closing date based upon valuations and
                  other studies.

                  The estimated purchase price and preliminary allocation of the
                  purchase price in excess of the net assets acquired as a
                  result of the acquisition is as follows:

</TABLE>

                  The fair value of assets acquired exceeded the purchase price,
                  therefore intangible assets were written down to zero.

                  For purposes of the Pro Forma Statement of Operations the
                  increase in property, plant and equipment to fair value is
                  being depreciated over estimated useful lives of 5-35 years.

         (c)      Reflects additional depreciation on property and equipment
                  related to increases in estimated fair values and a reduction
                  to amortization of intangibles related to the Company's
                  determination to assign no value to intangible assets
                  previously reported by Magnum.

         (d)      Reflects additional borrowings from the Company's credit
                  facility to finance the Magnum acquisition, net of repayment
                  of Magnum's term debt and mortgage balances.

         (e)      For purposes of the Pro Forma Statement of Operations,
                  interest rates of 7.25% and 8.00% are being used for the
                  increase in debt required to purchase Magnum for the year
                  ended December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30,
                  1999, respectively. Reflects the increase in interest on
