                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

ICF Kaiser International, Inc. 401(k) Plan Committee
Fairfax, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the ICF Kaiser International, Inc. Section 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related statement of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 1997.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the year ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1997 and reportable transactions
for the year ended December 31, 1997 are presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are
supplementary information required by the U.S. Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974.  The fund information in the statements of net assets
available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present
the net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets available for
benefits of each fund.  The supplemental schedules and fund information are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  The supplemental schedules and fund
information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

NOTE A -- DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

The following description of the ICF Kaiser International, Inc. Section 401(k)
Plan (the Plan) provides only general information.  Participants should refer to
the Plan for more detailed information.  The Plan was established effective
March 1, 1989 in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (ERISA) and is administered by an administrator appointed by ICF
Kaiser International, Inc. (the Company).  The Plan is a voluntary, defined
contribution plan that allows eligible employees of the Company to contribute on
a pre-tax basis up to 12% of their compensation, subject to a statutory limit.
The Company contributes a match of 50% of the first 4% of employee
contributions.  Employee contributions and Company matching contributions are
deposited with the Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (Vanguard), as trustee,
where they are accumulated and invested on behalf of the Plan at the discretion
of the employee.

Within guidelines established by the Plan, participants may elect to direct
their accounts into several alternative investment funds.  As of December 31,
1997, eligible investments included the following funds:

Vanguard Explorer Fund - A common stock fund that seeks long-term growth of
- ----------------------                                                     
capital by investing in small and emerging growth companies.

Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund-Long-Term Corporate Portfolio - A
- -------------------------------------------------------------------    
diversified portfolio of long-term, investment-grade bonds that seeks to provide
a high level of current income, consistent with maintenance of principal and
liquidity.

Vanguard Index Trust-500 Portfolio - A common stock fund that attempts to
- ----------------------------------                                       
provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance of
publicly traded stocks, in the aggregate, as represented by the Standard &
Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.

Vanguard International Growth Portfolio - An international fund diversified in
- ---------------------------------------                                       
the common stocks of companies in as many as 30 foreign markets.

Vanguard Money Market Fund Reserves-Prime Portfolio - A high-quality money
- ---------------------------------------------------                       
market fund of instruments that mature in one year or less that seeks
maximization of current income, preservation of capital, and liquidity.

Vanguard/Morgan Growth Fund - A common stock fund that seeks long-term growth of
- ---------------------------                                                     
capital by investing in a portfolio of common stocks.

Vanguard/PRIMECAP Fund - A common stock fund that seeks long-term growth of
- ----------------------                                                     
capital by investing principally in a portfolio of common stocks.

Vanguard/Wellington Fund - A common stock and bond fund seeking a diversified
- ------------------------                                                     
and balanced program of investing in bonds and common stocks to conserve
principal and provide reasonable income without undue risk.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

ICF Kaiser Stock Fund - This fund is invested primarily in common stock of ICF
- ---------------------                                                         
Kaiser International, Inc. (ICF Kaiser Stock).  This fund has been divided into
fund units rather than shares of stock.  The fund units are valued at their
year-end unit closing price (comprised of year-end market price plus uninvested
cash position).  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, each fund unit was valued at
$7.77 and $6.76, respectively.

A participant can determine the approximate number of shares of the underlying
ICF Kaiser Stock represented by the participant's fund units on the conversion
date by dividing the total market value of the participant's account balance by
the current share price of the stock.  As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, Plan
participants owned 369,333 and 386,602 shares, respectively, of ICF Kaiser Stock
with per share fair values of $2.31 and $1.88, respectively, based upon quoted
market prices.



NOTE B -- ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Plan follows the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting
purposes.  The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

Investments are valued for financial statement purposes at fair value.  The
values for the Vanguard Investment funds are based on the quoted net asset value
(redemption value) of the respective investment funds as of the Plan's year-end.
Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are purchased or
sold (trade date).  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recognized when earned.  The Plan has invested in the
investment options directed by its participants.  Loans to participants are
valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

The Plan presents in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for
Benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of its
investments.  The appreciation (depreciation) consists of the realized gains or
losses and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on those investments.

Employee contributions and the Company's matching contributions are fully vested
upon initial participation and nonforfeitable. Income, expenses, and gains or
losses (realized and unrealized) of Plan investments are allocated among
participants based upon their respective account balances. The amount of assets
transferred from other plans represents rollovers for new employees from other
employer qualified plans and are reflected as employee contributions.

Participants who have retired upon reaching the normal retirement date (age 65)
or a deferred retirement date, or who have terminated employment with the
Company, may elect to withdraw the entire amount of their contribution account.
Benefits are recorded when paid.

Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the participants and are
deducted from participants' accounts based on a flat quarterly fee.
Additionally, the Company provides certain administrative support to the Plan at
no cost.

                             SECTION 401 (k) PLAN


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Participants may borrow up to half of their account balance within guidelines
established by the Plan Committee.  Loans accrue interest at the prime rate as
determined at the time of issuance.  Loans are repaid through payroll deductions
on a bi-weekly basis over terms ranging from 1 to 10 years.

The Company anticipates and fully intends that the Plan will be a permanent
program for the exclusive benefit of the participants and their beneficiaries.
The Company, however, reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time such
action becomes necessary.    In the event the Plan is terminated, the net assets
will be allocated to participants as required by ERISA and its related
regulations.

Certain items in the 1996 plan financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1997 presentation.

NOTE C -- USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Plan's financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the Plan administrator to make
significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net
assets available for benefits at the date of the financial statements and the
changes in net assets available for benefits during the reporting period and,
when applicable, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE D -- RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Plan provides for various investment options in any combination of stocks,
bonds, fixed income securities, mutual funds, and other investment securities.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate,
market, and credit risks.  Due to the level of risk associated with certain
investment securities it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the
values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such
changes could materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts
reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.

The Plan has no formal policy requiring collateral to support the financial
instruments held by Vanguard.  Each of the Vanguard funds is registered under
the Investment Act of 1940 as a diversified open-ended investment company.
Certain funds invest in corporate debt instruments.  The issuer's abilities to
meet these obligations may be affected by economic developments in their
respective industries.

NOTE E -- FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

In January 1995, the Internal Revenue Service ruled that the Plan qualified
under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan has been amended
since receiving this determination letter.  An application for a new
determination letter has been completed and filed with the Internal Revenue
Service and as of December 31, 1997 such new determination letter has not been
received.  However, the Plan administrators and the Plan's tax counsel believe
that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, they believe
earnings on contributions to the Plan are not subject to tax under present
income tax laws and employee contributions to the Plan are not subject to
Federal income tax to the employee until distribution from the Plan.
