Fort Carson Set to Receive 20 Additional GreenTargets® for Live-fire Training

LENOIR CITY, Tenn. (November 19, 2009) – The U.S. Army has secured 20 additional targets to be used for live-fire training at Fort Carson, Colorado. The targets are manufactured and sold by EOD Technology, Inc. (EODT) under the product name GreenTargets®, and are currently used at the installation.

As Range Managers seek effective training tools that are cost effective, more and more installations have begun using the GreenTargets® because they offer realistic, versatile training and replicate both friend and enemy vehicles, while also allowing for ground or air assault. The targets are considered “environmentally friendly” because there is no environmental contamination left on site after use, as compared to the military surplus vehicles traditionally used for training. The targets are also made of 100% recyclable steel that can be sold at market value after use, no demilitarization required.

“With tighter budgets and greater demands, it’s important for Range Managers to find solutions with multiple benefits,” said Matt Kaye, President and CEO of EODT. “Based on the feedback we’ve received, the GreenTargets® are exceptional performers. They’re durable and can withstand multiple, high-caliber strikes, and can be used for air and ground assault, and the “green” component saves on cleanup costs.”

Currently, there are more than 650 GreenTargets® located at 32 U.S. Marine and Army installations across the U.S. and in Canada; Okinawa, Japan; Republic of Korea, and Grafenwöehr, Germany.

EODT Ethics Program Honored by Ethisphere Institute

Lenoir City, TN – The ethics and compliance initiatives of EOD Technology, Inc. (EODT) are being honored for being among the best of more than 1,000 federal contracting companies studied by an independent institute that encourages sound business practices, it was announced today.

EODT is a recipient of a top rating in the category of, “Best Overall Government Contractor Ethics Program,” following a study by the Ethisphere Institute. The rankings will be published in the first quarter issue of Ethisphere Magazine, available nationally March 15^th.

Researchers from the Ethisphere Institute analyzed more than 1,000 Federal Government contractors as part of the 2008 ratings. The ratings take into account new Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) rules regarding U.S. government contractors’ ethics programs, key Federal Sentencing Guidelines “hallmarks” for effective compliance programs and industry best practices.

The Institute scored companies based on their ethics programs, which were reviewed through an online questionnaire, along with information voluntarily provided by the participants. Quality assurance of responses were verified through random audit and review.

EODT was rated as #27 in Best Ethics Program Overall. In related rankings the firm was ranked #7 in Best Private Company Ethics Programs, #4 in Best Small Company Ethics Programs, and #5 in Internal Control Systems.

“We are delighted by the recognition of EODT for its ethics and compliance program” said Lt. Gen. USMC (Ret.) Jan Huly, an EODT Advisory Board member. “But our journey is just beginning as we continue to focus on fully integrating business ethics and conduct into everything we do as a company. We believe the Government will recognize this commitment and the improvements that result from it as indicative of the type of company it prefers to do business with.”

The Institute’s rankings were based on an objective analysis of four categories:

r Code of ethics and business conduct

r Leadership and tone from the top

r Internal control systems

r Ethics training and communication programs

“Oftentimes, government contractors are portrayed in a negative light in the news because of a few bad apples’ actions,” said Alex Brigham, executive director of the Ethisphere Institute. “While there are some contractors to whom ethics means little, we have found that there are many more who rightfully pride themselves on their ethical business practices.” Mr. Brigham added: “In undertaking this exhaustive research and ranking we have found the opportunity to highlighted companies that have taken proactive measures to implement the proper controls, culture and programs to communicate company values and prevent unethical behavior. They should be a shining example to others in the industry.””

EODT Supports Continuation of McClellan Work

February 8, 2007, Lenoir City, TN - EOD Technology, Inc. was awarded a $4 million firm-fixed-price contract by the McClellan Joint Powers Authority to perform munitions removal on property that was once a part of the Fort McClellan Army base near Anniston, Alabama. The contract is a continuation of existing cleanup work at the now closed base.

Fort McClellan is a former military training facility and was one of the principal chemical and biological warfare training centers for the Department of Defense during its period of operation. Fort McClellan was officially closed in 1999 and the McClellan Joint Powers Authority (JPA), an unincorporated, nonprofit association, was created to redevelop the property and transform it into an active part of the Anniston area community. Redevelopment-related activities at Fort McClellan have been on going since the facility’s closure.

This munitions removal project will address Munitions and Explosives of Concern that might remain on the property from previous Army training activities. EODT’s staff of nearly 60 munitions experts, management, and support personnel will perform the removal effort that encompasses two areas of the fort: Munitions Response Site 1; and Southern Alpha Munitions Response Site, a combined area of approximately 125 acres. The project is estimated to be completed by June 2007.

EODT also performed munitions clearance at Fort McClellan in 1999 in support of Eastern Bypass highway construction project. When asked about EODT’s return to Fort McClellan, EODT’s CEO Matt Kaye stated, “We are excited to begin what we hope will be a long-term relationship with JPA in which EODT supports the Authority in achievement of their redevelopment goals for the McClellan property.”

EODT Receives Two Project Awards from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

December 29, 2006, Lenoir City, TN - EOD Technology, Inc. was awarded two projects by the U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville under the worldwide Munitions Response Services and Other Munitions-Related Services contract, a contract held by EODT since 2004.

The projects call on EODT to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) at two Formerly Used Defense Sites, the former Five Points Outlying Field in Arlington, Texas, and the former Camp Claiborne, near Alexandria, Louisiana, under separate task orders. Both sites were used by the Army to train Soldiers and Airmen during the 1940s and early 1950s.

Because of the military activities once conducted at these locations, the Former Five Points Outlying Field and the Former Camp Claiborne sites present a potential munitions-related risk. Through the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) process, the Corps of Engineers, Environmental Protection Agency, and EODT, as the munitions response contractor, work to address the potential hazards associated with munitions contamination at such sites. The Five Points Outlying Field and the former Camp Claiborne sites have reached the RI/FS phase within the CERCLA process, the stage at which the site’s contamination is located, identified, and quantified and a method is devised for cleaning up the site. The Corps of Engineers’ Fort Worth District is the regional district responsible for managing both projects.

Since 1992, the Corps of Engineers and EODT have worked closely to respond effectively to the challenges associated with addressing munitions contaminated sites. Involving and educating the community and stakeholders and understanding and mitigating munitions-related risk are just some of the capabilities required to execute these projects successfully and at which EODT is skilled at delivering to its customers.
