The Registrant has had turnover of employees in the Registrant's accounting
and finance department. This required the Registrant to devote substantial
effort which otherwise would have been devoted to the preparation and filing of
the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended April
30, 2000 (the "Form 10-KSB"). For such reasons, the Form 10-KSB could not be
filed within the prescribed period.

[X] Yes [ ] No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations

earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
[X] Yes [ ] No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
The results of operations of the Registrant for the fiscal year ended April
30, 2000 ("fiscal 2000") will vary significantly from its results of operations
for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1999 ("fiscal 1999"). The Registrant's
revenues for fiscal 2000 were $12,845,165 compared with $13,926,812 in fiscal
1999. The Registrant's revenue's decreased primarily as a result of a revenue
decrease in two of the Registrant's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Trade-Winds
Environmental Restoration, Inc. ("Trade-Winds") and North Atlantic Laboratories,
Inc. ("NAL"). The decrease in Trade-Winds revenue of $549,170 in fiscal 2000 was
primarily attributable to reductions in asbestos and construction/renovation
projects of approximately $2,100,000 and $1,100,000, respectively, which were
partially offset by increases in emergency response and environmental
remediation/compliance projects of approximately $1,500,000 and $1,200,000,
respectively. The decrease in NAL revenues of $636,457 in fiscal 2000 was
primarily attributable to the loss of key management and sales personnel.
The Registrant incurred a net loss of $2,256,997 in fiscal 2000, an
increase of $949,521 from its net loss of $1,307,476 in fiscal 1999.
