ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations:

In the second quarter of fiscal 1996 the Company reported a net loss of
$496,000 or $0.05 per share as compared to a net loss of $258,000 or $0.03 per
share in the prior year.  Results were negatively affected by the varied costs
associated with the acquisition of EnviroQuest Technologies, Ltd, ("ETL") and
the integration of another Company subsidiary EnvirAlert, Inc. into ETL.
Additionally, revenues from the company's Toxguard subsidiary, which
provides environmental clean-up services for underground storage tanks, were
down during the recent quarter.

The acquisition of ETL, a national provider of statistical inventory
reconciliation (SIR) services, was closed in the second fiscal quarter at the
end of January 1996.  The combining of EnvirAlert and ETL will result in a
broader offering of compliance alternatives and inventory management to major
oil companies, independent marketers, and convenience store operators
nationwide.

Full integration of the two monitoring software operations under Roger Sherwood
as president is expected to be completed in the third quarter of fiscal 1996.
Mr. Sherwood joined the company in late calendar 1995 from a 30-year business
career in management at Amoco.

Recently, the Company announced two early results of its new combined marketing
program.

Alexander & Alexander, a major liability insurance broker, agreed to offer
substantial reductions in insurance premiums to owners of USTs that use the
Company's monitoring software services.  The savings may range from 50% to over
80% for $1-million coverage per tank.  Joint marketing efforts have begun and
both parties anticipating substantial growth in their respective businesses as
a result of this association.

The Company also announced a distribution agreement for its software and
services in Australia with a leading provider of services to owners of gasoline
storage tanks in that country, opening the door to expanded international
distribution.

Financial Condition and Liquidity:

During the quarter the Company completed two private placements, selling
285,875 shares of its common stock for $635,000 in net proceeds. The capital
infusions resulting from these transactions and the current cash and
equivalents are adequate to finance operations and expansion plans during
fiscal 1996.
