Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant
Effective October 18, 2004, the Board of Directors of 3CI Complete Compliance Corporation (the “Company”) approved the engagement of Weaver and Tidwell, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2004 to replace the firm of Ernst & Young LLP. Ernst & Young LLP was dismissed as independent auditors of the Company effective October 18, 2004. The change of certifying accountant was approved and recommended by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.
Ernst & Young LLP’s reports on the financial statements of the Company for the past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
In connection with the audits of the Company’s financial statements for each of the two fiscal years ended September 30, 2003 and in the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements between the Company and Ernst & Young LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young LLP would have caused Ernst & Young LLP to make reference to the matter in its report. The Company has requested Ernst & Young LLP to furnish it a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of that letter dated October 18, 2004 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.
