Item 5.  Other Events

On June 29, 2000, Whitney American Corporation, a Delaware corporation,
("Whitney"), Kemron Environmental Services, Inc., a New York
corporation,("Kemron"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Whitney and  Kiber
Environmental Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation, ("Kiber"), Juan J.
Gutierrez, the majority shareholder of Whitney, Katherine Tracy Bergquist-
Kingham and Neville Kingham, both shareholders of Kiber entered into a merger
agreement ("Agreement").  The Agreement contemplates a tax-free merger of Kiber
with and into Kemron in a reorganization described in section 368(a) and
368(a)(i)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
The Agreement calls for the shareholders of Kiber to receive a total of  200,810
shares of capital stock in Whitney and $450,000 in exchange for all of the
capital stock of Kiber.  The $450,000, paid at closing, consisted of $300,000 in
cash and a promissory note for $150,000, payable in twelve months and earning
interest at ten percent (10%).   The promissory note is personally guaranteed by
Juan J. Gutierrez.

Kiber is an environmental services company based in Atlanta, Georgia.  The
company is considered a strong compliment to Kemron's current business, as Kiber
performs similar consulting services but to a unique client base.  Kemron can
market its other services to many of these existing clients and cultivate
additional business.  The consulting operation of Kiber will be integrated into
the current consulting operation of Kemron's Atlanta office.  In addition, Kiber
has a laboratory operation, nationally recognized for conducting treatability
studies.  This treatability lab will be a separate business segment of Kemron.
It is the belief of both Kemron's and Kiber's management that this merger will
create some rewarding opportunities to expand the overall services with much of
the core clients of each company.

Kiber has experienced a steady revenue base over the last three years and has
stabilized its operating income after incurring a small loss in the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1998.  Kiber's financial statements have been audited for the
most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 only; the fiscal year 1998 is
unaudited.  On a consolidated basis, Kiber's revenues for fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999 represent approximately 12% of the total revenues of the
combined consolidated companies.
