Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

We entered into two agreements with The Babcock & Wilcox Company ("B&W"),
effective as of January 30, 2006, under which we will supply mercury emissions
control systems for two existing, and one new, coal-fired electric power
generating units for a facility located in the Western United States.  We are
obligated to deliver the equipment to B&W (at the utility company's location)
in several stages during the first half of 2007, and to assist in the
installation and testing of the equipment.  We will receive total payments
under the agreements of approximately $2.53 million, with payments to be made
to us upon the attainment of designated milestones that are customary for
these types of agreements.  If B&W elects early termination of the agreements
not due to any fault of ours, we will be entitled to reimbursement for all
costs incurred in performing the agreements through the date of termination
(including costs incurred in terminating our performance and that of any
subcontractors), plus an amount to compensate us for lost profits on all work
completed under the agreements through termination.  The agreements provide
for liquidated damages ranging from $1,500 to $10,000 per day if we are unable
to meet certain delivery obligations, subject to exceptions for delivery
failures that are outside our control.  We have previously entered into two
agreements with B&W to supply mercury emissions control systems for two other
electric utilities. For the first of such agreements, we delivered the
required equipment on schedule in December 2005 and expect to assist in the
installation and testing of the equipment in the first half of 2006.  For the
other agreement, we are on schedule with all designated milestones and expect
to deliver, assist with installation and testing of the equipment later in
2006.
