Annual Pinnacle Award Recognizes Companies for their Dedication to Safely Shipping Hazardous Materials

OMAHA, Neb.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Union Pacific Railroad recognized 147 companies with the 2024 Pinnacle Award for their dedication and commitment to safely transporting chemicals by rail. The annual award honors customers who implement release prevention protocols, corrective action plans and have zero non-accident releases of regulated hazardous materials shipments.

“Union Pacific congratulates this year’s Pinnacle Award winners for their outstanding commitment to safety,” said Kenny Rocker, executive vice president – Marketing and Sales. “At Union Pacific, safety is at the core of everything we do, and we are proud to partner with customers who prioritize the safe transportation of chemicals to protect the environment and the communities we serve.”

Union Pacific shares the same objective as its customers to safely deliver every tank car every day. The railroad’s Hazardous Materials Safety team supports customers with joint rail safety training programs and rail car inspections. Hazmat teams are located regionally across Union Pacific’s 23-state network with a four-prong mission: Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery.
