INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


NUS Environmental:

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of NUS Environmental 
(see Note 1) as of December 31, 1997, and the related statements of 
operations and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial 
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based 
on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material 
respects, the financial position of NUS Environmental at December 31, 1997, 
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended 
December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                           NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997
     
1.   GENERAL

     NUS Environmental ("NUS") is comprised of the environmental services 
businesses of Halliburton Company's ("Halliburton") Brown & Root, Inc. 
("Brown & Root") and Halliburton NUS Corporation ("Halliburton NUS") 
subsidiaries. On December 31, 1997, Tetra Tech, Inc. purchased certain assets 
of NUS from Brown & Root and Halliburton NUS.  The final purchase price, as 
adjusted, was $24,872,000.

     NUS provides consulting engineering and design services for the 
environmental remediation of contaminated air, water and soil conditions. 
Customers include industrial clients as well as federal, state and local 
governments, focused in the United States.

     Substantially all of NUS's cash receipts are remitted to Halliburton and 
substantially all of NUS's cash disbursements are funded by Halliburton.  In 
addition, Halliburton provides NUS with certain services, including corporate 
management, legal, audit, employee benefit administration, treasury, tax and 
other indirect administrative functions.  As a result, the financial position 
and operating results of NUS, as presented herein, may not be the same as it 
would be if NUS was an independent entity.

     The financial statements include only those assets, liabilities and 
results of operations which relate to the business of NUS.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     CONTRACT REVENUES AND COST - In the course of providing its services, 
NUS routinely subcontracts for services such as laboratory testing, soil 
cartage and other services and capabilities.  These costs are passed through 
to clients and, in accordance with industry practice, are included in NUS's 
gross revenue. Because subcontractor services can change significantly from 
project to project, changes in gross revenue may not be indicative of 
business trends.  Accordingly, NUS also reports net revenue, which is gross 
revenue less the cost of subcontractor services.  Contract revenues and 
contract costs on both cost-type and fixed-price-type contracts are recorded 
using the percentage-of-completion (cost-to-cost) method. Under this method, 
contract revenues on long-term contracts are recognized in the ratio that 
contract costs incurred bear to total estimated costs. Costs and income on 
long-term contracts are subject to revision throughout the lives of the 
contracts and any required adjustments are made in the period in which the 
revisions become known. Losses on contracts are recorded in full as they are 
identified. 
     
     General and administrative costs are expensed in the period incurred. 

<PAGE>

     Contract revenues under United States government contracts and 
subcontracts accounted for 76% of net contract revenue for the year ended 
December 31, 1997. 

     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are stated at cost and 
are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line 
method. Generally, estimated useful lives range from three to ten years.  
Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the 
shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term.  
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

     RECEIVABLE VALUATION ALLOWANCES - Accounts receivable valuation 
allowances include amounts to provide for doubtful accounts and for the 
potential disallowance of billed or unbilled costs.  Allowances to provide 
for doubtful accounts have been determined through a review of specific 
amounts determined to be uncollectible, plus a general allowance for other 
amounts for which some potential loss has been determined to be possible 
based on current events and circumstances.

     INCOME TAXES - NUS is included in the federal and state consolidated tax 
returns of Halliburton.  NUS has recorded a provision for federal and state 
taxes as though it filed separate tax returns with deferred tax benefits 
recorded for expenses not currently deductible. Deferred tax assets and 
liabilities have been recognized for differences between financial statement 
and tax bases of assets and liabilities using presently enacted rates.

     CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK - Financial instruments which subject NUS 
to credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable.  Approximately 41% 
of accounts receivable is due from various agencies of the federal 
government.  NUS performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and 
maintains an allowance for potential credit losses.

     USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity 
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make 
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and 
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date 
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these 
estimates.

     Contracts with the U.S. federal government are subject to audit by the 
government, primarily the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), which reviews 
NUS's overhead rates, operating systems and cost proposals.  During the 
course of its audit, the DCAA may disallow costs if it determines that NUS 
improperly accounted for such costs in a manner inconsistent with Cost 
Accounting Standards.

</TABLE>

     The income tax benefit has been recorded using a 35% federal rate and a
state rate (net of federal benefit) of 5%.  Temporary differences include
allowances for billed and unbilled receivables, as well as accruals not
currently deductible.

6.   EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

     Substantially all NUS employees are eligible to participate in a 401(k) tax
deferred savings plan.  Employees, at their option, may contribute a portion of
their earnings to the plan.  Contributions are restricted to amounts authorized
by Halliburton's board of directors. Contributions to the plan in respect of NUS
employees were approximately $1,026,000 in 1997.

7.   CONTINGENCIES

     NUS is subject to certain claims and lawsuits typically filed against the
engineering and consulting professions, primarily alleging professional errors
or omissions.  NUS carries professional liability insurance, subject to certain
deductibles and policy limits against such claims.  Management is of the opinion
that the resolution of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on
NUS's financial statements.
