American Water Star Inc. (AMEX: AMW) is proud to inform our valued
shareholders that our contract from Lipsey Mountain Spring Water
Co., the sole provider of disaster relief water for FEMA
(www.femawaternetwork.com), has moved our initial ship date to
immediate due to the disastrous Hurricane Katrina. We started
shipping on Aug. 30 and will continue until our contract is
fulfilled. Lipsey has asked that AMW provide 100% of our water
production capabilities from all four plants located in Phoenix,
Jacksonville, Magnolia and Kentwood. Estimated production
capabilities are 125 truckloads of water per day, seven days per
week. "We are very sad to hear about the devastation that has
occurred in the southeastern part of the United States. We are
proud to be selected to assist Lipsey on behalf of FEMA to provide
safe drinking water to the survivors of Hurricane Katrina," said
Roger Mohlman, CEO of AMW. "We are doing everything in our power to
run 24 hours a day to fulfill the need for safe drinking water."
