RE: Pacific CMA, Inc.
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004
File No. 001-31915
Dear Mr. Lam:
We have limited our review of your Form 10-K to disclosures
relating to your contacts with countries that have been identified
as
state sponsors of terrorism, and will make no further review of
the
Form 10-K. Our review with respect to this issue does not
preclude
further review by the Assistant Director group with respect to
other
issues. At this juncture, we are asking you to provide us with
supplemental information, so that we may better understand your
disclosure. Please be as detailed as necessary in your response.
After reviewing this information, we may or may not raise
additional
comments.
Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your
filings.
We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.
General -
We note that on page 31 of your Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements to your 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2004,
you define "IATA Area 2" as including a number of countries and
geographic regions, including Iran. On page 30 of your Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements, you state that the revenue for
IATA Area 2 was almost $24 million. In light of the fact that
Iran
has been identified by the U.S. State Department as a state
sponsor
of terrorism and is subject to economic sanctions administered by
the
U.S. Treasury Department`s Office of Foreign Assets Control,
please
describe for us the extent and nature of your past and current
contacts, directly or indirectly, with Iran; the types of
materials,
supplies, components, and goods you have transported or arranged
to
transport to, from, or on behalf of Iran, or any Iranian entity;
whether, to the best of your knowledge, understanding or belief,
any
such materials, supplies, components and/or goods could be put to
military use, or used in a terrorist undertaking; the materiality
to
you of your contacts with Iran; and your view as to whether those
contacts constitute a material investment risk for your security
holders. In preparing your response please consider that
evaluations
of materiality should not be based solely on quantitative factors,
but should include consideration of all factors that a reasonable
investor would deem important in making an investment decision,
including the potential impact of corporate activities upon a
company`s reputation and share value. In this regard, we note
that
legislation requiring divestment from, or reporting of interests
in,
companies that do business with countries designated as state
sponsors of terrorism has been adopted by Arizona and Louisiana.
Closing Comments

federal securities laws of the United States.
In addition, please be advised that the Division of Enforcement
