                                   EXHIBIT 99

     Letter  of  Intent   terminated   between   Mercury  Waste   Solutions  and
Environmental Technologies Corp.

Hurst, TX - October 10, 2000

     EVTC, Inc. t/a Environmental Technologies, Corp. (NASDAQ: EVTC) and Mercury
Waste  Solutions,  Inc.  (NASDAQ:  MWSI) jointly  announced the termination of a
letter of intent  whereby EVTC had agreed to purchase a controlling  interest in
MWSI through a friendly tender offer to acquire up to a maximum of 70% of MWSI's
outstanding shares. The letter of intent was terminated  primarily due to EVTC's
inability to raise the required  capital  following the dramatic drop in the per
share  price of its  common  stock and other  disagreements  on the terms of the
tender offer. There are currently no future discussions planned between EVTC and
MWSI.

EVTC, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries engages in the marketing and sale of
refrigerants,  refrigerant  reclaiming services,  recycling of fluorescent light
ballasts and lamps and, through e-solutions,  inc., directly markets business to
consumer services via the internet.

MWSI  provides  mercury  waste  recycling  services.  The  Company has sales and
processing  facilities in Union Grove, WI, and Roseville,  MN; sales and storage
facilities in Marietta,  GA and Indianapolis,  IN; storage facilities in Albany,
NY and Kenosha, WI; and corporate offices in Mankato, MN.
