PROXY STATEMENT

April 19, 2001

----------------------

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

DATE, TIME, AND PLACE

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy/voting instruction form
("Proxy Form") are being mailed beginning on or about the date shown above, to
holders of common shares (the "Stockholders") in connection with the
solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors" or
"Board") of HYDROMAID INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),
to be used at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Meeting"), to be held May
19, 2001 at the Salt Palace Convention Center, 90 South West Temple, Salt Lake
City, Utah 84101, telephone number (801) 521-2822, at 4:00 p.m. local time, or
any adjournment thereof.

QUORUM AND VOTING

Proxies are solicited to give all Stockholders of record at the close of
business on April 12, 2001 (the "Record Date"), an opportunity to vote on
matters that come before the Meeting. This procedure is necessary because
Stockholders live in various states and many may not be able to attend the
Meeting. Shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") can be voted only if the
Stockholder is present in person or is represented by proxy. The presence, in
person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the total outstanding voting
Shares is necessary to constitute a quorum at the Meeting.

When your Proxy Form is returned properly signed, the Shares represented
will be voted in accordance with your directions. You can specify your choices
by marking the appropriate boxes on the enclosed Proxy Form. If your Proxy Form
is signed and returned without specifying choices, the Shares will be voted as
recommended by the Board of Directors. Abstentions marked on the Proxy Form and
broker non-votes are voted neither "for" nor "against" items being voted upon,
but are counted in the determination of a quorum.

As of the Record Date, there were 26,914,538 Shares outstanding. Each
outstanding Share is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before
the Meeting other than the election of Directors if any stockholders elect to
vote by cumulative voting.

No stockholder may cumulate votes in the election of directors unless the
candidates' names have been placed in nomination prior to commencement of the
voting and the stockholder has given notice at the Meeting, prior to the voting,
of the stockholder's intention to cumulate votes. If any stockholder has given
such a notice, then every stockholder entitled to vote may cumulate votes for
candidates in nomination and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the
number of directors to be elected, multiplied by the number of votes to which
that stockholder's shares are entitled, or distribute the stockholder's votes on
the same principle among any or all of the candidates, as the stockholder thinks
fit. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of
directors to be elected, shall be elected.

SOLICITATION AND COST

The Company will bear all costs and expenses related to this solicitation
of proxies by the Board of Directors, including the costs of preparing,
printing, and mailing to the Stockholders this Proxy Statement and accompanying
materials. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use of the mails, the
Directors, Officers, and employees of the Company, without receiving additional
compensation, may solicit proxies personally, by telephone, or by any other
means of communication.

REVOCABILITY OF PROXY

If you wish to give your proxy to someone other than the persons designated
by the Board of Directors, all names appearing on the enclosed Proxy Form must
be crossed out and the name of another person or persons inserted. The signed
Proxy Form must be presented at the Meeting by the person or persons
representing you. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at
the Meeting by executing a later-dated proxy, by voting by ballot at the
Meeting, or by filing a written revocation of your proxy with the Company before
the Meeting.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. ACCORDINGLY, YOU ARE URGED TO SIGN AND RETURN THE
ACCOMPANYING PROXY FORM WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND THE MEETING. If you do
attend, you may vote by ballot at the Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy
previously given.

As a matter of policy, proxies, ballots, and voting tabulations that
identify individual Stockholders are kept private by the Company. Such documents
are available for examination only by the inspectors of election and certain
personnel associated with processing Proxy Forms and tabulating the vote. The
vote of any Stockholder is not disclosed except as may be necessary to meet
legal requirements.

DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE

The Company specifically incorporates the Financial Statements for the year
ended December 31, 2000, filed as part of the 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
in response to Item 13 of the 10-KSB (the "Annual Report"). The Annual Report
and accompanying Financial Statements should have been enclosed in the mailing
containing this Proxy Statement. If you did not receive a copy of the Annual
Report and Financial Statements, please contact the Company and request that the
information be sent to you. A copy of the 2000 Annual Report may be obtained

Company.

The note pertaining thereto bears interest at the rate of 6.2 percent per annum
and is payable on or before November 8, 2001.

In October 2000, the Company entered into a month-to-month lease with
Lighthouse Capital, Inc., which is solely owned by entities controlled by Culley
W. Davis. The monthly lease payment totals $9,200.

John W. Nagel, the Company's Chief Financial Officer and a Director is the
brother-in-law of the Company's legal counsel, Bruce H. Haglund, who also serves
as a Director and the Secretary of the Company, and is a stockholder.

Gibson, Haglund & Paulsen, the Company's attorneys, were paid approximately
$150,000 and $230,000 in legal fees for services rendered during 2000 and 1999,
respectively. Bruce H. Haglund, a Director, the Secretary, and stockholder of

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16 (a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires the Company's
officers, Directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of
the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the SEC. Officers, Directors, and greater than 10% beneficial
owners are required by Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulation to
furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16 (a) forms they file. Officers
of the Company did not file Form 4 regarding some shares acquired and options
granted to them during 2000. Forms 4 and 5 were filed in 2001 regarding the
transactions during 2000; accordingly, the Company believes all filing
requirements applicable to its Officers, Directors, and greater than 10%
beneficial owners have now been complied with.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors has the responsibility for establishing broad
corporate policies and for overseeing the overall performance of the Company.
However, in accordance with corporate governance principles, the Board is not
involved in day-to-day operating details. Members of the Board of Directors are
kept informed of the Company's business through discussions with the Chairman
and other officers, by reviewing analyses and reports sent to them, and by
participating in Board and committee meetings.

The Board held three meetings during 2000. All Directors attended more than
75% of the Meetings held.

COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD

During 1999, the Board of Directors established a number of committees,
including a Finance Committee, an Audit Committee, and a Compensation Committee,
each of which is briefly described below. Upon the election of Directors at the
Meeting, the Committees will be reconstituted for the ensuing year.

The Finance Committee was established to oversee Company expenditures and
approve contracts entered into by the Company requiring the payment of $50,000
or more. The Committee consists of Culley W. Davis, John W. Nagel, and Mark S.
Brewer.

The Audit Committee was established to meet with management to consider the
adequacy of the internal controls and the objectivity of financial reporting;
the committee meets with the independent auditors and with appropriate Company
financial personnel about these matters. The committee recommends to the Board
of Directors the appointment of the independent auditors, subject to
ratification by the Stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The independent auditors
periodically meet alone with the committee and always have unrestricted access
to the committee. The committee consists of John W. Nagel, Mark S. Brewer, and
Bruce H. Haglund.

The Compensation Committee negotiates employment contracts, recommends to
the Board of Directors compensation for officers, Directors, and employees, and
administers management incentive compensation plans, including stock option
plans. The committee consists of Culley W. Davis and Bruce H. Haglund. There is
one vacancy on the Compensation Committee at this time.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS

The Company's policy is not to pay cash compensation to directors who are
employees or consultants of the Company for their services as directors, but
reimburses reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of directors for attendance at
meetings. The Company has agreed to issue Mr. Young a total of 300,000 shares of
the Company's Common Stock, 200,000 shares the first year of service and 100,000
shares the second year of service. See "Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions" above. In 2000, all other Directors received options to purchase
shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share as reflected in the beneficial
ownership table on page 3 hereof.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS

The Company's Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of
directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. Such limitation of
liability does not apply to liabilities arising under the federal securities
laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as
injunctive relief or rescission.

The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors
and executive officers and may indemnify its other officers and employees and
other agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Company believes that
indemnification under its Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence
on the part of indemnified parties. The Company's Bylaws also permit it to
secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or other agent
for any liability arising out of his or her actions in such capacity, regardless
of whether the Bylaws permit such indemnification.

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company where indemnification will
be required or permitted. The Company is not aware of any threatened litigation
or proceeding that might result in a claim for such indemnification.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
(ITEM 1 ON PROXY FORM)

The Bylaws of the Company provide for the Directors to number at least
three and no more than seven. Five members of the Board of Directors are to be
elected at the Meeting. The nominees selected by the Board of Directors are
listed on the following pages. Stockholders have cumulative voting rights when
voting for Directors; accordingly, any Stockholder may multiply the number of
Shares he or she is entitled to vote by the number of Directors to be elected
and allocate votes among the candidates in any manner provided such candidate
was in nomination prior to the meeting. Stockholders may exercise such
cumulative voting rights, either in person or by proxy, with or without advance
notice to the Company. Any Shares not voted, whether by abstention, broker
non-vote, or otherwise, have no impact on the vote.

The Board of Directors intends to vote proxies equally for the nominees
unless otherwise instructed on the Proxy Form. If you do not wish your Shares to
be voted for particular nominees, please identify the exceptions in the
designated space provided on the Proxy Form. If at the time of the Meeting one
or more of the nominees have become unavailable to serve, Shares represented by
proxies will be voted for the remaining nominees and for any substitute nominee
or nominees designated by the Board of Directors.

Directors elected at the Meeting will hold office until the next Annual
Meeting or until their successors have been elected and qualified. For each
nominee there follows a brief listing of principal occupation for at least the
past five years, other major affiliations, and age as of April 1, 2001.

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF AUDITORS
(ITEM 2 ON PROXY FORM)

GENERAL

In conjunction with a merger and reorganization of ESSI and the Company,
the Company changed auditors in January 1999. The Company's former accountants,
Jones, Jensen & Co., were dismissed effective January 26, 1999, and Squar,
Milner, Reehl & Williamson, LLP ("Squar Milner"), were appointed as the
Company's principal accountants. There were no disagreements with the former
accountants and are no disagreements with the current accountants on any matter
of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedure. At a meeting on March 23, 2001, the Board of
Directors unanimously approved the recommendation of the Audit Committee for the
appointment of Squar Milner to audit the financial statements of the Company for
2001. This selection is subject to ratification or rejection by the
Stockholders.

Squar Milner has no financial interest in the Company. A representative of
Squar Milner is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will have an
opportunity to make a statement if he or she so desires, and is expected to be
available to respond to appropriate questions.

Squar Milner performed various audit and other services for the Company
during 2000. Such services included an audit of annual financial statements,
interim reviews of quarterly financial statements, review and consultation
connected with certain filings with the SEC, internal control reviews required
by certain contractual agreements or requested by the Company's management,
consultation on tax, financial accounting and reporting matters, and meetings

The Company has accrued approximately $40,000 through March 31, 2001 for
the audit of the December 31, 2000 financial statements by Squar Milner, and the
Company is current in the payment of fees due the auditors.

ALL OTHER FEES

The Company paid fees of approximately $1,000 to Squar Milner for all other
services provided by it during 2000, including audit-related services of $1,000.
No fees were paid for non-audit services.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed an Audit Committee
composed of three directors, Messrs. Nagel, Brewer, and Haglund.

The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit
Committee. A copy of that Charter is included as Exhibit "A" to this Proxy
Statement. The Audit Committee's job is one of oversight as set forth in its
Charter. It is not the duty of the Audit Committee to prepare the Company's
financial

statements, to plan or conduct audits, or to determine that the Company's
financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's management is
responsible for preparing the Company's financial statements and for maintaining
internal control. The independent auditors are responsible for auditing the
financial statements and for expressing an opinion as to whether those audited
financial statements fairly present the financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows of the Company in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. The Audit Committee met four times in 2000.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the Company's audited
financial statements with management and with Squar Milner, the Company's
independent auditors for 2000.

The Audit Committee has discussed with Squar Milner the matters required to
be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61.

The Audit Committee has received from Squar Milner the written statements
required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence
Discussions with Audit Committees, and has discussed Squar Milner's independence
with them, and has considered the compatibility of non-audit services with the
auditors' independence.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee
has recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements
be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2000 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Audit Committee

Mark S. Brewer

HYDROMAID INTERNATIONAL, INC.

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

ORGANIZATION

There shall be a committee of the Board of Directors ("Board") for HYDROMAID
INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Nevada corporation ("Corporation"), to be known as the
Audit Committee ("Committee"). At such time as required by Nasdaq-listing
requirements, the Committee shall be composed of directors who are independent
of the management of the Corporation and are free of any relationship that, in
the opinion of the Board, would interfere with their exercise of independent
judgment as a Committee member.

The Committee shall be comprised of three (3) or more directors as determined by
the Board. All members of the Committee shall have a working familiarity with
basic finance and accounting practices, and at least one member of the Committee
shall have accounting or related financial management expertise. Committee
members may enhance their familiarity with finance and accounting by
participating in educational programs conducted by the Corporation or an outside
consultant.

The members of the Committee shall be elected by the Board at the annual
organizational meeting of the Board or until their successors shall be duly
elected and qualified. Unless a chair is elected by the full Board, the members
of the Committee may designate a chair by majority vote of the full Committee
membership.

PURPOSE

The Committee shall provide assistance to the directors in fulfilling their
responsibility to the shareholders, potential shareholders, and investment
community relating to corporate accounting, reporting practices of the
Corporation, and the quality and integrity of the financial reports of the
Corporation. It shall be the responsibility of the Committee to maintain free
and open means of communication between the directors, the independent auditors,
and the financial management of the Corporation. Consistent with this function,
the Committee should encourage continuous improvement of, and should foster
adherence to, the Corporation's policies, procedures and practices at all
levels.

While the Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in this
Charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to
determine that the Corporation's financial statements are complete and accurate
and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This is the
responsibility of management and the independent auditor. Nor is it the duty of
the Committee to conduct investigations, to resolve disagreements, if any,
between management and the independent auditor or to assure compliance with laws
and regulations and the Corporation's business conduct guidelines.

In carrying out its responsibilities, the Committee believes its policies and
procedures should remain flexible in order to best react to changing conditions
and to ensure to the directors and shareholders that the corporate accounting
and reporting practices of the Corporation are in accordance with all
requirements and are of the highest quality.

The Committee's primary duties and responsibilities are to:

o Serve as an independent and objective party to monitor the
Corporation's financial reporting process and internal control system.

o Review and appraise the audit efforts of the Corporation's independent
accountants and financial management of the corporation.

o Provide an open avenue of communication among the independent
accountants, financial and senior management, and the Board.

EXHIBIT "A"
-1-

The Committee will primarily fulfill these responsibilities by carrying out the
activities enumerated in Section IV of this Charter.

MEETINGS

The Committee shall meet at least four (4) times annually, or more frequently as
circumstances dictate. As part of its responsibility to foster open
communication, the Committee should meet at least annually with management, and
the independent accountants in separate executive sessions to discuss any
matters that the Committee or each of these groups believe should be discussed
privately. In addition, the Committee or its chair should meet with the
independent accountants and management annually to review the Corporation's
financials in accordance with Section IV(3) below.
