Part I-Registrant Information

  Amwest Environmental Group, Inc.
      Full Name of Registrant

 1071 Los Alamitos Blvd.,  3rd Floor

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)

_______    (a)  The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of
this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense:
________  (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition
reports of Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K, Form N-SAR, or portion thereof, will
be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due
date; or the subject quarterly report of transition report on Form 10-Q, or
portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following
the prescribed due date; and
________  (c)  The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule
12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

Part III-Narrative

Amwest Environmental Group, Inc. (the Company) had been mostly inactive for 
the past year or so, until recently when the company began talks with several 
merger candidates.  These nerger candidates will provide an opportunity to 
commence new operations and provide existing shareholders with a better 
shareholder value.  

Because the merger candidate will have a significant impact on financial 
statement disclosures and represent a significant event subsequent to the 
August 31, 1997 financial statements of the Company, it is imperative for 
the Company to ascertain the finalization of the merger.  Since the merger 
candidate will not consummate the merger until all necessary documents are 
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the SEC approves the 
Company's filings, the Company is unable to properly express the merger's 
impact in the management's discussion and analysis section of the Form 10-K 
and properly document this subsequent event until these contingencies are
eliminated.

In addition, the Company is reliant upon the consummation of the merger to
provide additional operating funds which will be used to obtain an 
appropriate audit, as such to not accumalate additional debt to the company.
