Item 1.       Security and Issuer.

     This statement relates to the Common Stock, par value $1.00
per share (the "Shares"), of International Technology
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company").  The Company's
principal executive offices are located at 23456 Hawthorne
Boulevard, Torrance, CA  90508.


Item 2.       Identity and Background.

(a) - (c)

     This statement is filed by Corning Clinical Laboratories
Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as MetPath Inc. ("CCL"),
and Corning Incorporated, a New York corporation ("Corning"). 
CCL is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Corning.  Corning
and its subsidiaries engage principally in the manufacture and
sale of products made from specialty glasses and related
inorganics materials having special properties of chemical
stability, electrical resistance, heat resistance, light
transmission and mechanical strength.  In addition, Corning,
through subsidiaries and affiliates, engages in laboratory
service businesses, including life and environmental sciences and
clinical laboratory testing at more than 50 facilities in ten
countries.  

     The principal executive office of CCL is One Malcolm Avenue,
Teterboro, New Jersey 07608.  The principal executive office of
Corning is One Riverfront Plaza, MP-HQ E2-10, Corning, New York
14831.  

     The name, business or residence address and present
principal occupation or employment of each of the executive
officers and directors of CCL and Corning is as set forth in
Appendix I hereto, which is incorporated by reference.  Each of
such individuals is a citizen of the United States.

(d) - (e)

     During the last five years, neither CCL nor Corning, nor to
the best knowledge of CCL and Corning, none of the persons set
forth in Schedule I, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).  During
the last five years, neither CCL nor Corning, nor to the best of
CCL's and Corning's knowledge, none of the persons set forth in
Schedule I, was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result
of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or
final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


Item 3.       Source and Amounts of Funds or Other Consideration.

     On June 28, 1994, CCL (then known as MetPath Inc.) purchased
directly from the Company 333,000 shares and a warrant to
purchase 2,000,000 Shares identified in Item 5 of the Statement
for approximately $3.32 million of accounts receivable that had
risen in the ordinary course of CCL's Enseco environmental
testing services division (the "Enseco Receivables").  The
purchase was part of the transaction in which CCL contributed the
assets of its Enseco Division to Quanterra Incorporated, a newly
organized Delaware corporation ("Quanterra"), for 1,056 shares of
Class A Common Stock of Quanterra and IT Corporation, a
California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company ("IT"), contributed the assets of its environmental
testing services division as well as the Enseco Receivables for
1,056 shares of Class B Common Stock of Quanterra.  The shares of
Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock that Quanterra
issued to CCL and IT are the only outstanding shares of capital
stock of Quanterra.  In connection with the transaction,
Quanterra assumed certain liabilities of CCL and IT.

Item 4.       Purpose of Transaction.

     CCL has purchased the Shares of the Company for investment
purposes. Neither CCL nor Corning has any plans or proposals
which relate to, or could result in any of the matters referred
to, in paragraphs (a)-(-j) inclusive, of item 4 of Schedule 13D. 
Subject to CCL s contractual obligations described in Item 6, CCL
reserves the right to review or reconsider its position with
respect to any such matters.

Item 5.       Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     (a)  CCL, for purposes of the federal securities laws, is
the beneficial owner of 2,333,000 Shares consisting of (1)
333,000 Shares purchased pursuant to a Securities Acquisition
Agreement dated May 2, 1994 (the Securities Acquisition
Agreement) between the Company and CCL and (2) 2,000,000 Shares
which CCL has the right to purchase for $5.00 per share through
June 28, 1999 pursuant to a warrant (the  Warrant ) issued by the
Company to CCL pursuant to the Securities Acquisition Agreement. 
To the best knowledge of CCL and Corning, none of the persons
listed on Schedule I beneficially owned at the time of the event
set forth on the first page of this statement any of the Company
s Shares.  Based on the number of Shares of the Company
outstanding as specified in the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended September 30, 1994, and giving effect to the exercise of the 
Warrant, the aggregate number of 2,333,000 Shares of the Company would
represent approximately 6.2% of the Company's outstanding Shares.

     (b)  Subject to the rights of the Company under the
Securities Acquisition Agreement as summarized in Item 6,  CCL
has the sole power to vote and to dispose of the Shares set forth
in paragraph (a) above.

     (c)  Neither CCL nor Corning, nor to the best knowledge of
CCL and Corning, any of the persons listed on Schedule I hereto,
has during the sixty days prior to the filing of this statement
effected any transaction in the Company s Shares.

     (d)  None.

     (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationship
          With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

     The 333,000 Shares purchased and the Warrant to purchase an
additional 2,000,000 Shares were purchased by CCL on June 28,
1994 pursuant to the Securities Acquisition Agreement.  See Item
3.  The Securities Acquisition Agreement provides, among other
things, that until May 2, 1999 or until CCL disposes of its
Shares, CCL and its affiliates will not seek to acquire more than
six percent (6%) of the outstanding Shares (calculated
on a fully diluted basis), participate in a group seeking to
acquire the Company, engage in a proxy contest with respect to
the Company, or otherwise seek to control the management,
directors, or affairs of the Company.  The Securities Acquisition
Agreement also provides generally that CCL may not sell its
Shares to persons holding more than 1% of the outstanding shares,
or 5% in the case of an institutional investor whose identity the
Company has approved in advance and, under certain circumstances,
for a right of first refusal in favor of the Company in the
event CCL desires to sell its Shares prior to May 2, 1999.  The
Securities Acquisition Agreement generally requires CCL through
May 2, 1999 to vote its Shares in accordance with the
recommendation of the Company's management.  The Securities
Acquisition Agreement also provides CCL with certain rights to
cause the Company to register the Shares it acquired under the
Securities Acquisition Agreement, including the Shares purchased
under the Warrant.
