Item 4   Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountants

On April 18, 1995, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors of Serv-Tech,
Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") approved the selection of KPMG Peat
Marwick, LLP as the Company's independent auditors for the year ending December
31, 1995, and voted to dismiss the current independent auditors, Coopers &
Lybrand, LLP.

There were no disagreements with Coopers & Lybrand on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure in connection with the audits of the Company's financial statements
for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1993 and 1994, or for any subsequent
interim period, which if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused
them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection
with their report.  Neither report contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer
of opinion or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles.

During the two most recent fiscal years and through present, there have been no
reportable events (as defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K) with Coopers &
Lybrand.  The Company has not consulted with KPMG Peat Marwick regarding the
application of accounting principles to a specified transaction or the type of
audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements
during the two most recent fiscal years through present.

A letter of Coopers & Lybrand addressed to the Securities and Exchange
Commission is included as Exhibit 16 to this Form 8-K.  Such letter states that
the firm agrees with the statements made by the Company in this Item 4.
