BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) recently honored 109 customers with the railroad’s annual Product Stewardship Award for the safe transportation of hazardous materials by rail.

Companies receiving the award transported an established minimum of loaded tank cars of hazardous materials with zero non-accident releases during last year’s full transportation cycle. These customers also upheld the ethics of Product Stewardship under the American Chemistry Council’s Responsible Care® initiative.

“Safety is always a priority in all our operations at BNSF,” said Executive Vice President and Chief Operations Officer Matt Igoe. “We take pride in celebrating customers whose priorities consistently align with our own. These strong partnerships help us remain committed to moving materials safer than any other mode of land transportation.”
