INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTY EVALUATION OF

IWT & TECHNOLOGY

• The County of Los Angeles commissioned an independently prepared comprehensive report to evaluate commercially available non-incineration waste processing technologies beginning in 2004

• URS, one of our nation’s largest engineering firms, prepared the report and concluded the following:– Based on supplier credibility existing operational experienceBased on supplier credibility, existing operational experience,

completeness of engineering, landfill diversion, permitability and economics, IWT and the Thermoselect technology were ranked #1 The entire evaluation can be found at IWT’s website: iwtonline com– The entire evaluation can be found at IWT s website: iwtonline.com.
