NEWS RELEASE


                    FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS AWARDED $30,000 GRANT
        BY METROPOLITAN WATER DISTRICT OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOR WATER
                          EVAPORATION REDUCTION PROJECT

COMPANY'S WATER$AVR TECHNOLOGY TO BE DEPLOYED AT Owens Lake

VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 13, 2004 - FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL,
INC. (AMEX: FSI, FRANKFURT: FXT) the developer and manufacturer of the first
commercially viable water evaporation retardant in the world, today announced
that the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) will utilize
the Company's environmentally safe Water$avr technology at Owens Lake as part of
the agency's water conservation program.

The MWD, a Los Angeles-based consortium of 26 cities and districts providing
drinking water to nearly 18 million people in Southern California, awarded
Flexible Solutions a $30,000 grant under the agency's Innovative Supply Program
for an evaporation control project starting in June 2004. Flexible Solutions
said the project involves applying Water$avr, an evaporation retardant that will
create a harmless liquid blanket on the surface of Owens Lake, three times per
week. By measuring the amount of water that enters and leaves the lake,
calculations can determine the amount of evaporation reduction.

"The Metropolitan Water District, one of the nation's largest water districts,
has water stored in several major surface reservoirs, with much of the supply
lost to the natural process of evaporation," stated Dan O'Brien, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Flexible Solutions International. "Water$avr is a
proven evaporation retardant that can reduce evaporation by 20 to 40% on lakes,
reservoirs, canals and slow moving streams. This is the first major domestic
award that FSI has received from a large municipal water authority and we are
pleased that the MWD is giving us this initial opportunity to demonstrate the
proven viability of our environmentally friendly and food safe technology."

Carlos de Leon, resources specialist in the MWD's Water Management Group, said
that one of the Innovative Supply Program's immediate concerns is conserving the
District's water supply. "We are very excited about working with Flexible
Solutions and the possibilities that the Company's technology presents for
preserving our regional water supply," Mr. de Leon said.

Owens Lake, situated near Keeler in east central California, formerly was a dry
lakebed known for producing enormous amounts of windblown dust that saturated
the area. The lakebed was flooded with water from the Los Angeles Aqueduct to
control the dust. Now that the lakebed is covered with water, the FSI will
deploy Water$avr on 1,000 acres to demonstrate its effectiveness in reducing
evaporation. The project, which will get under way in June, is expected to last
from 30 days up to three months.

Mike Stover, Director of North American Operations for Flexible Solutions, noted
that Southern California over the years has faced an ongoing challenge of
providing a consistent water supply to the large irrigated farms and drinking
water for cities in the area. "We believe that Water$aver has a pivotal role to
play in water conservation and we look forward to demonstrating its
effectiveness in one of California's major reservoirs."

Water$avr is an environmentally friendly patented mixture of food safe
ingredients that creates a harmless one-molecule thin layer on the water's
surface to keep it from evaporating. Water$avr spreads across the surface by
means of a patented spreading mechanism and if the water is disturbed by wind,
waves or a swimmer, the particles rush back together and reform the protective
cover. Water$avr has been certified by the United Nations, the National
Sanitation Foundation (NSF) and meets the drinking water standards of the
American National Standard Institute (ANSI).
<PAGE>
MWD, with annual revenues of around $800 million, delivers an average of 1.7
billion gallons of water per day to a 5,200-square-mile service area consisting
of parts of Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino and
Ventura counties. In addition to the City of Los Angeles, MWD provides water for
Anaheim, Beverly Hills, Burbank, Compton, Fullerton, Glendale, San Fernando, San
Marino, Santa Ana, Santa Monica, Torrance and other cities and communities.

The Metropolitan Water District, a public state agency, imports much of its
water supply from the Colorado River. Its existing facilities include the
242-mile long Colorado River aqueduct with five pumping plants, a distribution
system with nine functional reservoirs, five water filtration plants and 15
hydroelectric plants.

MWD's Innovative Supply Program provides $250,000 in grants on a competitive
basis to stimulate and advance innovative ideas that have the potential to
produce new sources of water supply. The trials for Flexible Solutions'
Water$avr technology will be a key component of this year's program.

Water$avr's performance has been documented around the world. Most recently,
Water$avr trials were carried out in Morocco by the Office National de l'eau
Potable (ONEP) (National Office of Drinking Water). Using standard outdoor
holding pans and recognized evaporation testing methods, ONEP obtained
evaporation reduction of 30% by treating the water surface every two days as is
recommended for high sunlight conditions and 45% when increasing the treatment
schedule to every day. ONEP scientists also reconfirmed that Water$avr had no
effect on aquatic life or oxygen transfer.

Trials in India were conducted by the engineering staff of the 1,500-acre (650
hectare) Manjara drinking water reservoir. This large-scale trial in which
10,000 pounds (4550kg) of Water$avr was used showed that the retardant is an
effective evaporation control remedy on a major body of water. During a
four-week control period, Water$avr applied to the reservoir every two days
saved 34% of the water that would have evaporated. The gross amount of water
saved in two weeks was 160 acre-feet (199,000 cubic meters). An acre-foot is
325,851 gallons.

Flexible Solutions also is developing Water$avr as an agricultural application
for delivering nutrients to increase crop yield and as a spreading mechanism for
applying agents to combat mosquito borne diseases such as West Nile Virus,
Malaria, Equine Encephalitis, and Dengue Fever.
