Marshall T. Reynolds, Chairman, noted he was very pleased with the performance for the quarter.  “We have overcome the uncertainties that led to 2009 being such a difficult year for the Company as well as the severe winter just past which delayed projects and reduced our income during that quarter, and are now seeing the results we had anticipated and are optimistic about both the remainder of 2010 and 2011.  Our backlog totaled $87.7 million at June 30, 2010 and the continued improvement in the demand for our services, places the Company on track to have a very good 2010.”

Edsel R. Burns, President of ESA, shared Mr. Reynolds thoughts.  “We are very pleased that the benefits of all the hard work to position the Company for the increased demand for its services is starting to be realized.  At June 30, 2009 our backlog was $50 million compared to the backlog of $87.7 million at June 30, 2010.  Accordingly, even with the strong revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, our Backlog is still 75% greater than last year.  Further with the known projects that are coming up for 2011 and beyond, we are very optimistic about the Company’s prospects.  2010 shows every indication of having a performance in line with and perhaps exceeding, the original ESA business plan.”  Key information at June 30, 2010 was as follows:
