PROTECTING OUR ENVIRONMENT
We pledge to handle our customer's
product in an environmentally
responsible manner. We are
members of the non-profit Clean
Channel Association, a
cooperative effort of 27
corporations. In the event of a
spill, members of the
association pool equipment as
well as personnel in order to
respond quickly to contain and
clean up the spill. The Clean
Channel Association also
provides periodic training to
member companies in which a
"mock" spill is staged and
specialized equipment is
deployed while being witnessed
by appropriate agencies.
Our Spill Response Plans and
contingency procedures have been
approved by applicable Federal
and State regulatory agencies.
We keep our own spill
containment and clean-up
equipment onsite.
We are also committed to
protecting the occupational
health and safety of our
employees and employees of other
firms working with us. We have
established internal standards
that meet or exceed OSHA
standards, keeping us a leader
in health and safety performance
among terminal facilities. |
