The operating profit for the core utility was up by 9% at 387 million pounds. Supplies were available during a drought in 1995, and the company has managed to control costs well.

Burning mad at Shanks and McEwan

Article Abstract:

Shanks and McEwan has seen a rise in its share price following the award of a government contract to burn cattle carcasses. This should help Rechem, a Shanks subsidiary. The contract has a three-year duration and Rechem faces a decline in its traditional activity of toxic waste disposal. Shanks' core business is the disposal of waste at landfill sites. The company could be affected by European Union regulations on landfill disposal methods which would mean sifting waste.
