Re: Form S-3/A (Registration Number 333-65443; Original Filing
Date 2-July-1999)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is being written to request withdrawal of the
Registration Statement on Form S-3/A, Registration Number 333-65443
originally filed on 2-July-1999 (the "Registration Statement") by
Metalclad Corporation (the "Company").
The reason for withdrawal is that the passage of time has
obviated the need for registration. None of the securities covered
by the Registration Statement have been offered for sale or sold
and the Company has abandoned the offering contemplated by the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/Grant S. Kesler
Grant S. Kesler, President
Metalclad Corporation
