Section 7 - Regulation FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

      The  Registrant  previously  disclosed in its Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2003, that during January 2004, the U.S.  Environmental  Protection
Agency  ("EPA")  issued to Perma-Fix  of Dayton,  Inc.  ("PFD"),  a wholly owned
subsidiary of the  Registrant,  a Notice of Findings of Violations  ("Findings")
alleging that PFD committed numerous violations of the Clean Air Act (the "Act")
or  regulations  thereunder,  and,  although EPA did not assert any penalties or
fines  in the  Findings,  they  did,  however,  specify  that  EPA  had  several
enforcement  options,  including  issuing  an  administrative  penalty  order or
bringing  judicial  action  against PFD. PFD has had numerous  meetings with EPA
regarding  this matter.  On September 28, 2004,  PFD received an  Administrative
Compliance Order ("Order"), dated September 21, 2004, from EPA alleging that PFD
was a "major source" of hazardous air pollutants and, as a major source, PFD was
required  to  have  obtained  a  Title  V air  permit,  and  thereby  was not in
compliance with provisions of the Act and/or regulations  thereunder  applicable
to a major source.  The Order further  provides that PFD has six months from the
effective date of the Order, to develop, submit, obtain and comply with numerous
costly and burdensome compliance  initiatives  applicable to one that is a major
source of hazardous air  pollutants and to submit an application to the State of
Ohio for a Title V Air permit.  The Order does not assert any penalties or fines
but provides that PFD is not absolved of any  liabilities,  including  liability
for penalties,  for the alleged  violations cited in the Order, and that failure
to comply with the Order may subject PFD to  penalties up to $32,500 per day for
each  violation.  PFD has 10 days from the  receipt  of the  Order to  request a
conference with EPA regarding the Order, which PFD intends to do. The Registrant
and PFD have retained environmental  consultants who have advised the Registrant
and PFD that,  based on the tests  that they have  performed,  the  enviromental
consultants  do not  believe  that  PFD  is a  major  source  of  hazardous  air
pollutants.  The Registrant and PFD have been further advised by counsel that if
PFD is not a major source of hazardous air pollutants, PFD would not be required
to obtain a Title V air permit,  would not have  violated the  provisions of the
Act alleged in the Order and would not be required to comply with the costly and
burdensome  compliance  initiatives contained in the Order. Further, the Company
and  PFD  have  been  further   advised  that  the  Order  may  violate  certain
constitutional  issues  involving due process based on a recent  decision by the
United States Court of Appeals,  11th Circuit.  A  determination  that PFD was a
major source of hazardous air  pollutants and required to comply with the Order,
such could have a material adverse effect on the Registrant.  The Registrant and
PFD  intend  that PFD will  vigorously  defend  itself in  connection  with this
matter.
