Koch Fertilizer earned the Union Pacific Pinnacle Award and the Kansas City Southern Hazardous Material Shipper Safety Award for rail shipments in 2019. 

These are awarded annually to customers who implemented release prevention protocols and corrective action plans, and had zero non-accidental releases of regulated hazardous materials shipments with a qualifying minimum volume. 

In fact, Koch Fertilizer had zero non-accidental releases across all rail carriers in 2019.

“This is a tribute to our commitment to safely maintain, load, secure and inspect our railcars,” said Kevin Flahive, director rail transportation with Koch Rail.
