Inc., Common Stock, $.01 par value) File No. 1-15789

September 3, 2002.
    Stratus Services Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (``Issuer''), 
has filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission''), pursuant to section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) thereunder,\2\ to withdraw 
its Common Stock, $.01 par value (``Security''), from listing and 
registration on the Boston Stock Exchange (``BSE'').

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.12d2-2(d).

    The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with all 
applicable laws in effect in the State of Delaware, in which it is 
incorporated, and with the BSE's rules governing an issuer's voluntary 
withdrawal of a security from listing and registration.
    In making the decision to withdraw the Security from listing on the 
Exchange, the Board of Directors of the Issuer determined that the 
continuing costs of maintaining the Security's listing on the BSE 
outweighed the benefits of listing. The Issuer represents that the 
Security is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. The Issuer's application 
relates solely to the Security's withdrawal from listing on the BSE and 
from registration under section 12(b) of the Act \3\ and shall not 
affect its obligation to be registered under section 12(g) of the 
Act.\4\ Any interested person may, on or before September 24, 2002, 
submit by letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, 450 Fifth Street, NW., Washington, DC 20549-0609, facts 
bearing upon whether the application has been made in accordance with 
the rules of the BSE and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the 
Commission for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on 
the information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority. \5\
