THE ABILITY TO SUSTAIN

As a leading provider of a leading provider of environmental services and byproduct recycling to the power generation industry, practicing environmental responsibility, investing in employees, and serving our communities are all part of our mission. Our ESG actions and goals are the blueprints for achieving a cleaner environment and a more sustainable future. We are committed to taking a leadership stance that investors recognize for value creation, that our partners recognize for aligning with their sustainability goals, and that our employees recognize for creating a great place to work.

ESG reporting gives us the opportunity to share our story and demonstrate the sustainability commitment that we practice daily on the job to our customers, partners, and shareholders. In our second annual 2021 ESG Report, we continue to focus on the real differences we are making, with key performance metrics that are relevant business drivers and value creators for our business while enhancing the environment. We set aggressive ESG goals in 2021, and we are proud to state that we substantially met all of our 1-year ESG goals and are well on our way to meeting and exceeding our 3-year and 5-year goals.

We strive to be the best possible employer to our people and vigilant stewards to the environment as these are fundamental values that we work to accomplish every day. We know that we must keep improving, and we continually set goals across the Company to make sure we are innovating, providing our employees with opportunities to grow, and benefiting the environment at every step. This represents an incredible track record that we are justifiably proud of. And yet, we have only begun this journey. There is no finish line.
