There are 2 service locator classes in the petstore. One is for the ejb tier the other for
the web tier. Why cannot there be just one used for both tiers?

IMHO
Could be web and ejb containers are in different JVMs. JNDI lookups are slow to begin with and having two ServiceLocators eliminates a bit of latency.
