              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared by the Registrant ("Synagro Technologies, Inc." or the
"Company") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all
normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for the fair presentation of such financial statements for the periods
indicated.  Certain information relating to the Company's organization and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles has been condensed or
omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X for interim
financial statements required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  However, the Company believes that the disclosures herein are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The results for the
six months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of future
operating results.  It is suggested that these financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

         The accounting policies followed by the Company in preparing interim
consolidated financial statements are similar to those described in the "Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements" in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

         Earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of
common shares.

Organization

         Synagro Technologies, Inc., engages in the business of management of
biosolids through beneficial reuse of organic materials.  The Company offers a
variety of services with respect to this business, including the
transportation, processing, regulatory compliance and marketing of end products
from these materials.

Reclassifications

         Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 financial
statements to conform with the June 30, 1996 presentation.

         acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.

         As of July 25, 1996, the Company renegotiated a working capital
         facility in the amount of $1,200,000.  Current utilization of the
         credit line is approximately $463,000.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
attached condensed consolidated financial statement and notes thereto, and with
the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1995.

         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  Net sales in the second quarter of 1996
decreased to $4,379,988 from $4,457,155 in the second quarter of 1995.  For the
first half of 1996, net sales decreased approximately 6% to $8,491,413 from
$8,989,624 for the same period in 1995.  This decrease is primarily the result
of  a lack of sales from a pelletized organic waste division which was closed
in July 1995 and the Ft. Smith, Arkansas waste treatment plant closing due to
tornado damage.

         Cost of goods sold and gross profit in the second quarter of 1996 were
$3,368,215 and $1,011,773, respectively, compared with $3,637,513 and $819,642,
respectively, in the second quarter of 1995.  Gross margin increased to 23%
from 18% in the second quarter of 1995.  Cost of goods sold and gross profit in
the first half of 1996 decreased to $6,801,919 and $1,689,494, respectively,
from $7,182,774 and $1,806,850, respectively, for the same period in 1995.  The
decrease in cost of goods sold and gross profit was attributable to costs
eliminated as a result of the sale of the sawmill in March 1996 and the closing
of the pelletized organic waste division.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased  $162,903 for
the quarter and $356,449 year to date.  This decrease is directly the result of
management's cost reduction efforts throughout fiscal 1996.

         Second quarter interest expense decreased to $166,008 from $260,750 in
the second quarter of 1995.  Interest expense for the first six months of 1996
was $287,455, or a decrease of $189,699 from the same period in 1995.  This
decrease was attributable to the retirement of certain debt obligations.

         As a result of the foregoing, the second quarter 1996 reflects  net
income of $262,888, as compared to a net loss of $(373,275) in the second
quarter of 1995.  Year to date net income of $326,195 compares favorably to a
net loss of $(351,171) in 1995.

         As a result of the Company's cumulative operating losses, the Company
has not paid income tax since inception.  As of December 31, 1995, the Company
had net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $5,500,000.
Utilization of the Company's net operating loss may be subject to limitation
under certain circumstances.

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.  The Company has historically
financed its operations principally through the sale of equity and debt
securities and through funds provided by operating activities.  Cash and cash
equivalents decreased by $1,437,454 as of June 30, 1996.  The primary
utilization of cash was for equipment purchases and significant reductions in
accounts payable and long term debt.

         During the period ended June 30, 1996, the Company expended
approximately $577,686 for capital equipment purchases.  Additionally, the
Company completed sales of certain assets associated with the pelletizing
facility and a sawmill in Arkansas for gross proceeds of $991,200.  These
assets had an aggregate net book value of $696,223, resulting in a recognized
gain of approximately $251,000.

         As of June 30, 1996, the Company had long-term borrowings in the
aggregate amount of $5,309,792, the current portion of which was $2,005,902.
The Company reduced its long-term borrowings by approximately $1,650,000 during
the first half of 1996. This reduction in debt was serviced through a use of
working capital, the conversion of $190,000 of debt to common stock and an
increase in short term borrowings of $160,097.

         At June 30, 1996, the Company had positive working capital of
approximately $2,429,111.  Management believes that the Company will be able to
continue to reflect positive working capital  throughout 1996.
