Item 2.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
               OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
financial statements and notes thereto and other financial information relating
to the Company.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and
June 30, 1999.

     Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased 48%, or
$3,077,000, compared to the same period in 1999 ($9,441,000 compared to
$6,364,000).  Revenues increased due to growth from existing operating locations
and new acquisitions  The fueling installations segment increased 5% or $239,000
for the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same quarter in 1999 ($5,248,000
compared to $5,009,000).  During the third quarter of 1999, the Company began
installation of turn-key fueling facilities under the NESCO Acceptance
Corporation program for providing design, permitting, installation, and
financing of such facilities.  Since the beginning of the program through June
30, 2000, six fueling facilities have been completed or are under construction.
Fueling facilities for other clients continue to be installed.  Environmental
services revenue increased $2,628,000, or 237%, for the second quarter of 2000
compared to the same quarter in 1999 ($3,738,000 compared to $1,110,000).  The
acquisition of  TET Environmental Services in South Carolina in May, 1999, added
significant environmental contracts and personnel to the existing South Carolina
division.  The growth of that office and the receipt of benefits from the TET
acquisition for the full second quarter in 2000 compared to the second quarter
in 1999 contributed to the increase.  The addition of the TET revenues and the
growth in pay-for-performance environmental revenues from the Company's other
offices accounted for the growth in environmental revenues.  Miscellaneous
revenues increased $210,000, or 86%, for the second quarter of 2000 compared to
the same quarter the previous year ($455,000 compared to $245,000).  The
increase was due to increased sales of Encompass tank gauging systems.

     Cost and expenses increased 39%, or $1,603,000 ($5,694,000 for the second
quarter of 2000 compared to $4,091,000 for the same quarter in of 1999).  Cost
of sales as a percent of revenues for the second quarter of 2000 was 60%
compared to 64% for the same quarter in 1999. Direct labor increased  32% to
$1,409,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared to $1,066,000 for the second
quarter of 1999. Costs of supplies and materials increased, 40% or $526,000,
for the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same quarter in 1999 ($1,850,000
compared to $1,324,000). The increase in the cost direct labor and supplies and
materials was due to the increased work performed by the Company. Subcontractor
expense increased $625,000 ($1,384,000 for the second quarter of 2000 compared
to $759,000 in the second quarter of 1999). The 82% increase in the use of
subcontractors resulted from the greater amount of work performed and the
increased use of subcontractors for turnkey installation of fueling facilities.
Vehicle expense except depreciation increased $33,000 ($128,000 compared to
$95,000) in the

                                       9
<PAGE>

second quarter of 2000 compared to the same quarter in 1999 due to the greater
number of vehicles owned by the Company.
     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $297,000 for second
quarter of 2000 as compared to the second quarter of 1999 ($1,907,000 compared
to $1,610,000). The 18% increase was a result of the Company's growth through
acquisitions and increased business activities in its ongoing operations. This
increase was significantly less than the 48% increase in revenue due to
administrative cost savings as the acquired companies were integrated into the
Company's operation and to the realization of economies of scale as the
Company's operations grew larger. Selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percent of revenues was 20% for the second quarter of 2000 compared to 25%
for the same quarter in 1999. During the second quarter of 2000 there were six
division offices that did not exist during the second quarter of 1999.
Officers, management and administrative salaries increased 39% for the second
quarter of 2000 compared with the same quarter in 1999 ($900,000 compared to
$646,000). The increase is attributable to the addition of new personnel at the
six offices and normal salary increases. Salesmen's travel expenses increased
$32,000 in the second quarter compared to the same quarter in 1999 due to the
increase in number of sales personnel employed ($39,000 compared to $7,000).
Office rent expense also increased due to the addition of the six offices. The
office rent expense increased $40,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared to
the same quarter in 1999 ($85,000 compared to $45,000). Advertising increased
$34,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same quarter in 1999
($50,000 compared to $16,000). The increase was due to a larger sales staff and
increased advertising expenditures to support the staff. Bad debt expense
decreased $81,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared to the same quarter in
1999 due to significant write off of accounts receivable generated by a division
that was subsequently closed for poor performance.

     Interest expense increased $250,000 in the second quarter of 2000 compared
to the same quarter in 1999 ($386,000 compared to $136,000) due to increases in
the line of credit for operations and term loans for the acquisition of
companies and equipment. A portion of the increase resulted from an increase in
interest rates paid by the Company. The line of credit adjusts as the national
prime rate adjusts. The Company has the option to fix the interest rate for
specified periods at the Eurodollar rate for such period plus a margin
previously established. The prime rate at the end of the second quarter of 1999
was 7.75%. By the end of the second quarter of 2000, the rate had increased to
9.5%.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and
June 30, 1999.

     Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased 37%, or
$5,076,000, compared to the same period in 1999 ($18,972,000 compared to
$13,896,000). Revenues increased due to growth from existing offices and new
acquisitions. The fueling installations segment increased 11%, or $1,076,000,
for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999
($10,571,000 compared to $9,495,000). The company increased the number of
installations of turnkey fueling facilities under the NESCO Acceptance
Corporation program for providing design, permitting, installation, and
financing of such facilities. The fueling systems installation under the site
development program was not begun until the third quarter of 1999. Fueling

to the same period in 1999 ($7,353,000 compared to $3,899,000). The acquisition
of a company in South Carolina in May, 1999, added significant environmental
contracts and personnel to the South Carolina division office. The growth of
that office and the receipt of benefits for the entire six-month period in 2000
compared to the same period in 1999 contributed to the increase. This addition
and the growth in pay-for-performance environmental revenues from the Company's
other offices accounted for the growth in environmental revenues. Miscellaneous
revenues increased $546,000, or 109%, for the second quarter of 2000 compared to
the same quarter the previous year ($1,048,000 compared to $502,000). The
increase was due to increased sales of Encompass tank gauging systems.

     Cost and expenses increased 33%, or $2,782,000, ($11,254,000 for the first
six months of 2000 compared to $8,472,000 for the same period in of 1999).  Cost
and expenses as a percent of revenues was 59% for the first six months of 2000
compared to 61% for the same period in 1999. Direct labor increased  30%, or
$615,000 ($2,691,000 for the first six months of 2000 compared to $2,076,000 for
the same period in1999). Costs of supplies and materials increased 23% or
$694,000 for the first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999
($3,668,000 compared to $2,974,000). The increase in the cost of direct labor
and supplies and materials was due to the increased work performed by the
Company. Subcontractor expense increased $976,000 ($2,664,000 for the first six
months of 2000 compared to $1,688,000 in the same period of 1999). The 58%
increase in the use of subcontractors resulted from the greater amount of work
performed and the increased use of subcontractors for turnkey installation of
fueling facilities. Vehicle expense except depreciation increased $95,000
($267,000 compared to $172,000) in the first six months of 2000 compared to the
same period in 1999 due to the greater number of vehicles owned by the Company.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $461,000 for first
six months of 2000 as compared to the same period of 1999 ($3,658,000 compared
to $3,197,000). The 14% increase was a result of the Company's growth through
acquisitions and increased business activities in its ongoing operations. This
increase was significantly less that the 37% increase in revenue due to
administrative cost savings as the acquired companies were integrated into the
Company's operation and to the realization of economies of scale as the
Company's operations grew larger. Selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percent of revenues was 19% for the first six months of 2000 compared to
23% for the same period in 1999. During the first six months of 2000 there were
six division offices that did not exist during the same period of 1999.
Officers, management and administrative salaries increased 31% or $420,000 for
the first six months of 2000 compared with the same period in 1999 ($1,756,000
compared to $1,336,000). The increase is attributable to the addition of new
personnel at the six offices and normal salary increases. Salesmen's travel
expenses increased $61,000 in the first six months of 2000 compared to the same
period in 1999 due to the increase in number of sales personnel employed
($75,000 compared to $14,000). Office rent expense also increased due to the
addition of the six offices. The office rent expense increased $87,000 in the
first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 ($168,000 compared
to $81,000). Bad debt expense decreased $144,000 in the

first six months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 due to significant
write off of accounts receivable generated by a division that was subsequently
closed for poor performance.

Interest expense increased $465,000 in the first six months of 2000 compared to
the same period in 1999 ($705,000 compared to $240,000) due to increases in the
line of credit for operations and term loans for the acquisition of companies
and equipment. A portion of the increase resulted from an increase in interest
rates paid by the Company. The line of credit adjusts as the national prime
rate adjusts. The Company has the option to fix the interest rate for specified
periods at the Eurodollar rate for such period plus a margin previously
established. The prime rate at the end of the second quarter of 1999 was 7.75%.
By the end of the second quarter of 2000, the rate had increased to 9.5%.

Changes in Capital Resources and Liquidity

     On February  15, 2000, the Company obtained an increase in its line of
credit loan from the Bank of Oklahoma. The line was increased from $7 million
to $9 million. All other terms and conditions remained unchanged.

     On May 12, 2000, the Company obtained a new credit facility from Bank One,
Oklahoma, N.A. The existing line of credit and term loan with another lender
and a series of purchase financing and other loans were paid off with the
proceeds of the new credit facility. The new credit facility comprised three
loans. The term loan of $13,300,000 included $2,500,000 for the acquisition of
a Florida company and a Kentucky company. The funds were placed in the
revolving line of credit facility pending the closing of the acquisitions. When
the Florida acquisition was terminated, $1,900,000 of the $2,500,000 borrowed
for that acquisition was applied to the purchase of Hopkins Appraisal Services,
Inc. The second loan of $4,000,000 line of credit was for future acquisitions.
As of June 30, 2000, $1,390,000 was borrowed against the acquisition line of
credit to fund the remainder of the Hopkins acquisition. The third loan was a
revolving line of credit for $8,000,000 to be used for working capital.
Interest rates on the loans float at the Bank One prime rate. The Company has
the option to fix the interest rate for specified periods at the Eurodollar rate
for such period plus a margin previously established. The working capital
revolving line of credit loan matures April 30, 2002, and requires monthly
payment of interest accrued. The acquisition line of credit matures April, 30,
2002, and requires a monthly principal payment of 1/60th of the acquisition loan
principal balance and accrued interest. The term loan matures April 30, 2003,
and requires a monthly principal payment of 1/60th of the original principal
balance and accrued interest to be paid monthly.

     The Company continued to make periodic debt repayments during this period.
