independent accountant, S.W. Hatfield & Associates, resigned as
independent accountants from the company by way of the attached
letter of resignation (Exhibit A).
(ii) The former accountants are fully aware of the problems and
indebtedness created by the Company's former management and the

suitable to replace the former accountant.

for the most recent fiscal year, there were no disagreements with
the former accountant on any matter of accounting principle or

procedure. During th esubsequent interim period up to May 27, 1997,
there were no disagreements with the former accountant on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
(v) As described in the accountant's May 27, 1997 letter (Exhibit A), the
former accountants concerns rest upon indebtedness of the Company, to

this resignation as a hostile action toward the Company with the
intention of hindering the reorganization of the Company.

Gentlemen:
Please be advised that Environmental Chemicals Group, Inc. (Company) currently
has amounts owed S.W. Hatfield + Associates (Firm) which are in excess of one

has created a situation whereby this Firm is no longer independent with respect
to your Company and the Company's financial statements.
Accordingly, we hereby resign as the Company's independent certified public
accountants and will refer these amounts due for collection.
Additionally, this is to confirm that the client-auditor relationship between
Environmental Chmicals Group, Inc. and S.W. Hatfield + Associates has ceased.
Sincerely,
/s/S.W. Hatfield + Associates
