Item No. 1 Financial Statements


OP-TECH ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


1.       The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and 
Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the 
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, quarterly
results include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring 
adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of 
such information fir interim periods.

         The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

2.       The timing of revenues is dependent on the Company's backlog, contract
awards, and the performance requirements of each contract.  The Company's
revenues are also affected by the timing of its clients planned remediation 
work as well as the timing of unplanned emergency spills.  Historically, 
planned remediation work generally increases during the third and fourth  
quarters.  Although the Company believes that the historical trend in 
quarterly revenues for the third and fourth quarters of each year are 
generally higher than the first and second quarters, there can be no assurance  
that this will occur in future periods.  Accordingly, quarterly or other 
interim results should not be considered indicative of results to be expected  
for any quarter or for the full year.
3.       The Company has made a provision for New York State Franchise income
taxes of $367 and $4,796 as of March 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively.  No        
provision for federal income taxes has been made due to the Company's  
available net operating loss carryforwards.

Item No. 2

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $14,223 as
compared to $12,647 at December 31, 1995.

At March 31, 1996, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,350,884
compared to a deficit of $742,556 at December 31, 1995.  The increase in the
working capital deficit is attributable to lower accounts receivable as well as 
a long-term note to an affiliated party becoming current during the first 
quarter of 1996.  The Company had a current ratio of .46 to 1 at March 31, 
1996 and .68 to 1 at December 31, 1995.  The ratio of long-term debt (exclusive 
of current maturities) to equity at March 31, 1996 was 3.74 to 1 compared to 
2.55 to 1 at December 31, 1995.

The Company generated cash from operations of $14,406 for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996 compared to cash provided by operations of $31,185
during the three month period ended March 31, 1995.

The Company has available a collateralized borrowing facility that provides for
borrowing up to $1,000,000 on a revolving basis.  Additionally, at March 31, 
1996, the Company has an unsecured line of credit with an affiliated party with
maximum borrowings of $500,000 due on March 31, 1997.  Borrowings against the
collateralized and unsecured lines of credit aggregated $907,000 and $245,000
respectively at March 31, 1996.

The Company's $1,000,000 collateralized line of credit with a bank expires on 
May 31, 1996.  The Company expects to satisfy its liquidity requirements during
the next twelve months which are expected to consist of working capital
requirements, principal and interest payments on debt and some small capital
expenditures.  In order for the Company to achieve these cash requirements, it
will be necessary for the bank to renew the line of credit in May 1996.  
Although there can be no guarantees of its renewal, management believes that 
the bank will renew this credit facility at the same availability.

Results of Operations

Billings:

The Company's project billings for the first quarter of 1996 have decreased 58%
to $908,678 from $2,164,523 during the first quarter of 1995.  The Company's
decrease in revenues during the first quarter of 1996 is attributable to a lower
volume of emergency spill response activity.  Emergency spill response billings
during the first quarter of 1996 amounted to approximately $84,000 versus
$612,000 for the same quarter in 1995.  The environmental services market
continues to be slow.  As a result of a general downturn in this market,
management has taken specific steps to reduce overhead through Company wide
staff reductions, salary cuts and minimized non-production expenses.  These cost
saving measures initiated in February are expected to have a positive impact on
the results of operations currently and in the future.




Project Costs and Gross Profit:

Three Months Ended March 31, 1996

Project costs for the three months ended March 31, 1996 decreased 63% to
$519,326 from $1,397,026 for the same period in 1995 primarily due to decreased
revenues.  Project costs as a percentage of revenues was 57% and 65% for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively.


The gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was 43%
versus 35% for the same period in 1995.  The Company's gross profit margin
fluctuates with the mix of work during a given quarter.  Typically, projects 
which are labor and equipment intensive generate a higher gross profit margin 
than projects that consist primarily of costs that are passed through to 
clients with a minimal amount of markup such as disposal costs, equipment 
rentals and subcontract costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 increased 7% to $677,913 from $634,584 for the same period in
1995.  This increase is attributable to a  lower utilization of the operations 
staff and Company owned equipment as a result of a decrease in available work.  

Net Loss:

The net (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was ($377,371) or 
($.08) per share compared to net income of $41,534 or $.01 per share for the 
same period in 1995.
