Re:     EA Engineering, Science, and Technology, Inc.
        Stock Option Plan

Gentlemen:

     We have acted as counsel for EA Engineering,  Science, and Technology, Inc.
(the "Company") in connection  with the preparation of a Registration  Statement
on Form S-8 (the "Registration  Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended,  pertaining  to the  Company's  Stock  Option  Plan.  The  Registration
Statement  relates to 250,000  shares of the Company's  Common Stock,  par value
$0.01 per share (the "Common Stock").

     We have examined all such corporate records of the Company,  and such other
instruments, certified by public officials or officers of the Company, and other
documents  as we  deemed  necessary  as a  basis  for  the  opinion  hereinafter
expressed.

     Based upon and subject to the  foregoing,  we are of the  opinion  that the
Common  Stock has been duly  authorized  and that the Common  Stock  will,  upon
issuance and delivery in accordance  with the terms and conditions  described in
the Registration Statement, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

     We hereby  consent  to the  filing of this  opinion  as an  exhibit  to the
Registration  Statement  and to the use of the name of this firm  therein and in
the prospectus.

                                               Very truly yours,
