          to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of
          competent jurisdiction as a result of which the Reporting Person was

          violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
          federal or state securities laws or finding any violations with
          respect to such laws.

     (f)  James P. Fagan is a citizen of the United States.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

          In his original Schedule 13D dated February 23, 1998, the Reporting
          Person reported beneficial ownership of 2,533,308 shares.  Of the
          2,533,308 shares reported, 308,400 shares were acquired pursuant to
          the Merger Agreement dated 10/31/95 between the Issuer and Waste
          Reduction Systems ("WRS").  The Reporting Person surrendered 78.39
          shares of WRS in exchange for 308,400 shares of the Issuer.  The
          remaining 2,224,908 shares originally reported as beneficially owned
          by the Reporting Person were held as options or warrants which were
          granted to James P. Fagan by the Issuer in connection with services
          performed by him.

          On June 19, 1998, the Issuer effected a one-for-four reverse split of
          the Issuer's common stock.  On November 1, 1999, the Issuer granted to
          the Reporting Person sufficient options to acquire 12.5% of the
          Issuer's fully diluted ownership, exercisable

                                       3
<PAGE>

          immediately for ten years at $0.30 per share. See Attachment for a
          complete list of grant dates and exercise prices for the options and
          warrants owned by the Reporting Person. If and when the Reporting
          Person exercises any of his options and warrants, he intends to use
          personal funds for the exercise price.

Item 4    Purpose of Transaction

          On November 1, 1999, the Issuer granted to James P. Fagan  sufficient
          options to acquire 12.5% of the Issuer's fully diluted ownership,
          which vests after the Company achieves six consecutive months with
          EBITDA in excess of a total of $600,000.  The purpose of the grant of
          options was to allow Mr. Fagan to maintain at least 12.5% control of
          the Issuer despite any dilution that may occur through the conversion
          of convertible securities, the exercise of options or warrants, or the
          issuance of new shares through June of 2000.

Item 5    Interest in the Securities of the Issuer

     (a)  The Reporting Person beneficially owns 1,405,398 shares of the common
          stock of the Issuer, including: (i) 77,100 shares held by James P.
          Fagan; (ii) currently exercisable options and warrants to purchase
          70,386 shares at $0.125 per share; (iii) 125,000 shares at $0.125 per
          share; (iv) 360,841 shares at $0.125 per share; and (v) an option to
          acquire 12.5% (inclusive of current holdings) of the fully diluted
          ownership of the Issuer, exercisable at $0.30 per share.  The
          1,405,398 shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person represent
          approximately 12.5% of the Issuer's outstanding common stock as of the
          date of this Schedule 13D.

     (b)  The Reporting Person has the power to vote, direct the vote of,
          dispose of, and direct the disposition of 1,405,398 shares of common
          stock.

     (c)  No transactions in the Issuer's common stock have been effected in the
          last 60 days by the reporting Person.

     (d)  No other person has rights with respect to the securities beneficially
          owned by the Reporting Person.

     (e)  Not Applicable.

          to the Securities of the Issuer.
