2010-04-22
BNSF on April 20 honored 93 shippers with its Annual Product Stewardship Award for the safe transportation of hazardous materials by rail during 2009.
These 93 award-winning companies have successfully implemented the ethics of Product Stewardship under the American Chemistry Council's Responsible Care® initiative. Last year, BNSF presented 86 customers with its Stewardship Award.
"This is a record year for the number of customers who have received BNSF's Stewardship Award. We are pleased that each year the number of customers receiving this award grows. It demonstrates our customers' and the rail industry's focus on the safe transportation of hazardous materials," said Katie Farmer, BNSF vice president, Industrial Products Sales, at a special presentation at BNSF's corporate headquarters in Fort Worth. "The product stewardship of these 93 customers helps support the safety of our employees, the communities we serve and the environment."
Implemented in 1997, BNSF's Product Stewardship Award is presented to shippers who transported a minimum of 500 loaded tank cars of hazardous materials during the previous year with zero non-accident releases (NARs) during the entire transportation cycle.
