If the notification relates to a portion of the filing checked above, identify the Item(s) to which the notification relates:

PART I -- REGISTRANT INFORMATION

PART II -- Rules 12b-25(b) and (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

PART III -- NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

The registrant is expected to receive a waiver from its lender as a result of its failure to meet its second quarter fixed charge coverage ratio covenant as required by its Amended and Restated Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement. However, due to unexpected delay, such waiver is not expected to be received until after the scheduled deadline filing date of August 15, 2016. The Company’s inability to meet its quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio in the second quarter of 2016 was primarily due to delays in receipt of certain waste shipments which have been rescheduled for later this year. The registrant is also expected to receive a revision from its lender in the methodology to be used in calculating its quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio. With this revision, the registrant expects to meet its quarterly fixed charge coverage ratio requirement in each of the remaining quarters of 2016.

PART IV -- OTHER INFORMATION

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The registrant’s financial results for the second quarter of 2016 were significantly impacted by the delays of certain large waste treatment shipments in the Treatment Segment which have been pushed out to later this year. In addition, the registrant recorded certain non-cash impairment losses and charges in connection with its East Tennessee Material and Energy Corporation (“M&EC”) subsidiary as discussed below.

During the second quarter of 2016, the registrant’s M&EC subsidiary was notified by the lessor that the lease agreement under which M&EC currently operates its Oak Ridge, Tennessee facility would not be renewed at the end of the current lease term ending January 21, 2018. In light of this event and our strategic review of operations within our Treatment Segment, the registrant is proceeding with a plan to shut down its M&EC facility located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee at the end of the lease term. The registrant will continue operations at the M&EC facility during the remaining term of the lease and will begin the process of transitioning waste shipments and operational capabilities to our other Treatment Segment facilities, subject to customer requirements and regulatory approvals. Simultaneously, the registrant will begin required clean-up/maintenance procedures at M&EC’s Oak Ridge, Tennessee facility in accordance with M&EC’s Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) permit requirements.

The registrant estimates that it will have revenues from continuing operations of approximately $14.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, a decrease of approximately $1.6 million from revenues from continuing operations of approximately $16.4 million for the corresponding period of 2015. Also, the registrant estimates it will have net loss from continuing operations of approximately $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2016 as compared to net income from continuing operations of $407,000 for the corresponding period of 2015. The registrant’s net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2016 includes non-cash impairment losses recorded for tangible (property and equipment) and intangible (permit) assets of approximately $1.8 million and $8.3 million, respectively, resulting from the pending shut down of the registrant’s M&EC facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The net loss for the second quarter also includes a write-off of approximately $587,000 in prepaid fees in connection with certain permits at the M&EC facility. The registrant recorded a tax benefit of approximately $3.2 million as a result of the impairment loss incurred on intangible assets for its M&EC facility.

The registrant estimates net loss attributable to common stockholders (both basic and diluted) to be approximately $8.2 million or ($0.71) per share for the second quarter of 2016 compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $154,000 or ($0.01) per share for the corresponding period of 2015.
