     The executive management of the Company wishes to certify the accuracy of
the Company's financial position and results of operations as of and for the
period ended June 30, 2002 and, as of the regulatory due date for its
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2002, was awaiting
updates from the Company's outside counsel for all litigation and
environmental matters in which the Company is involved.  As a result, the
Company is unable to complete and file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q by
the prescribed date without unreasonable effort or expense.  Pursuant to Rule
12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company respectfully
requests a five-day extension to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
period ended June 30, 2002.
