Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

     The following documents of the Registrant heretofore filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are hereby incorporated in
this Registration Statement by reference:

     (1)  The Company's Registration Statement on Form 10/A (Amendment No. 1)
          under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
          Act"), filed on November 21, 2000, which includes a description of the

<PAGE>

deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such
earlier statement. Any statement or document so modified or superseded shall not
be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.

Item 4.    Description of Securities.

     Not applicable.

Item 5.    Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     The validity of the securities of the Registrant being registered hereby
has been passed upon by Lawrence N. Fisher, Senior Vice President - Law and
Secretary of the Registrant.  Mr. Fisher is an executive officer of the
Registrant and holds both restricted and unrestricted shares of the Registrant's
common stock.  Mr. Fisher is also eligible to participate in the Fluor 2000
Executive Performance Incentive Plan.

Item 6.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Registrant is a Delaware corporation. Article Sixteen of the
Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the
officers and directors of the Registrant shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as amended from time to time (the "GCL") (but in the case of
any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the
Corporation to provide prior to such amendment). Section 145 of the GCL provides
that a Delaware corporation has the power to indemnify officers and directors in
certain circumstances.

     Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the GCL empowers a corporation to
indemnify any director or officer, or former director or officer, who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action in the right of the corporation), against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit
or proceeding provided such director or officer acted in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, provided
that such director or officer has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

     Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any
director or officer, or former director or officer, who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth
above against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit;
provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. However, no indemnification may be made in respect of any
obligation, issue or matter as to which such director or officer has been
adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
Court of Chancery or the

                                       2
<PAGE>

court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, the director or officer is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper.

     Section 145 further provides that (i) to the extent that a director or
officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145
or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith. Article Sixteen of the Registrant's Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the indemnification provided
for thereunder shall be a contract right which shall include the right to be
paid expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition subject to any undertakings required under the GCL. Subsection (e)
of Section 145 requires an undertaking to repay any such amount advanced if the
director or officer receiving such amount is ultimately determined not to be
entitled to indemnification.

     Article Sixteen limits indemnification of any officer or director with
respect to actions initiated by such person to those actions where such
indemnification is approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors.

     Indemnification provided for by Section 145 and Article Sixteen is not to
be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be
entitled. Both Section 145 and Article Sixteen permit the Registrant to maintain
insurance on behalf of a director or officer against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his
status as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify
him against such liabilities under Section 145.

     Article Sixteen provides that any director or officer claiming rights to
indemnification thereunder may bring suit if such indemnification is not paid
within thirty days. Article Sixteen further provides that the Registrant bears
the burden of proving that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct
required for indemnification under the GCL if the Registrant elects to defend
any such action. Article Fifteen of the Registrant's Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted
under the GCL, a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to
the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director.

Item 7.    Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(1)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (a)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
          post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

          (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
                Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

          (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
                the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
                recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
                in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
                information set forth in the registration statement.
                Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
                volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
                securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
                and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated
                maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
                prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
                in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
                more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering

                                       4
<PAGE>

                price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table
                in the effective registration statement;

          (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
                distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
                statement or any material change to such information in the
                registration statement;

          provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

     (b)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
          Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
          be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
          therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
          deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (c)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
          of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
          termination of the offering.

(2) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

     The following documents of the Registrant heretofore filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are hereby incorporated in
this Registration Statement by reference:

     (1)  The Company's Registration Statement on Form 10/A (Amendment No. 1)

other subsequently filed document which also is or is

deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such
earlier statement. Any statement or document so modified or superseded shall not
be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this
Registration Statement.

Item 4.    Description of Securities.

     Not applicable.

Item 5.    Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

     The validity of the securities of the Registrant being registered hereby
has been passed upon by Lawrence N. Fisher, Senior Vice President - Law and
Secretary of the Registrant.  Mr. Fisher is an executive officer of the
Registrant and holds both restricted and unrestricted shares of the Registrant's
common stock.  Mr. Fisher is also eligible to participate in the Fluor 2000
Executive Performance Incentive Plan.

Item 6.    Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Registrant is a Delaware corporation. Article Sixteen of the
Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the
officers and directors of the Registrant shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as amended from time to time (the "GCL") (but in the case of
any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the
Corporation to provide prior to such amendment). Section 145 of the GCL provides
that a Delaware corporation has the power to indemnify officers and directors in
certain circumstances.

     Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the GCL empowers a corporation to
indemnify any director or officer, or former director or officer, who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action in the right of the corporation), against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit
or proceeding provided such director or officer acted in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, provided
that such director or officer has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

     Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any
director or officer, or former director or officer, who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that such person acted in any of the capacities set forth
above against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit;
provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. However, no indemnification may be made in respect of any
obligation, issue or matter as to which such director or officer has been
adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
Court of Chancery or the

                                       2
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, the director or officer is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper.

     Section 145 further provides that (i) to the extent that a director or
officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145
or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith. Article Sixteen of the Registrant's Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the indemnification provided
for thereunder shall be a contract right which shall include the right to be
paid expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition subject to any undertakings required under the GCL. Subsection (e)
of Section 145 requires an undertaking to repay any such amount advanced if the
director or officer receiving such amount is ultimately determined not to be
entitled to indemnification.

     Article Sixteen limits indemnification of any officer or director with
respect to actions initiated by such person to those actions where such
indemnification is approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors.

     Indemnification provided for by Section 145 and Article Sixteen is not to
be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be
entitled. Both Section 145 and Article Sixteen permit the Registrant to maintain
insurance on behalf of a director or officer against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his
status as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify
him against such liabilities under Section 145.

     Article Sixteen provides that any director or officer claiming rights to
indemnification thereunder may bring suit if such indemnification is not paid
within thirty days. Article Sixteen further provides that the Registrant bears
the burden of proving that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct
required for indemnification under the GCL if the Registrant elects to defend
any such action. Article Fifteen of the Registrant's Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted
under the GCL, a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to
the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director.

Item 7.    Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not applicable.

Item 8.    Exhibits.

     Unless otherwise indicated below as being incorporated by reference to
another filing of the Registrant with the Commission, each of the following

      24    Powers of Attorney (included on Signature Page)

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(1)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (a)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
          post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

          (i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
                Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

          (ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
                the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
                recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or
                in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
                information set forth in the registration statement.
                Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
                volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
                securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
                and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated
                maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
                prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
                in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
                more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering

                                       4
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table
                in the effective registration statement;

          (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
                distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
                statement or any material change to such information in the
                registration statement;

          provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

     (b)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
          Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to
          be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
          therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
          deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (c)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
          of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
          termination of the offering.

(2) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

                                       5
