Alpha Natural Resources Publishes First Sustainability Report

16.05.2012  |  PR Newswire

BRISTOL, Va., May 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpha Natural Resources (NYSE:ANR), a leading U.S. coal supplier, is pleased to announce the publication of its first sustainability report, "Fueling Progress."  The report, developed through consultation with key stakeholders, focuses on issues of economic, social and environmental performance—each of which is critical to the company's ability to continue to grow and thrive.

"The engagement process has given our stakeholders—employees, customers, suppliers, regulators, community members and shareholders—an opportunity to better understand how Alpha works and a voice in the reporting process," said Phil Cavatoni, Alpha's executive vice president and chief strategy officer.  "In order to succeed, we need to operate with respect and attention to all stakeholders."

The report provides insight into the company's culture and integration process following the acquisition of Massey Energy Company in mid-2011. It also documents Alpha's progress in the following performance arenas:

  • Empowering every Alpha employee to be part of creating a safer, better workplace through the company's signature Running Right process;
  • Working to be responsible stewards of the environment by minimizing impacts on land, water, and air; and
  • Investing in, supporting, and responding cooperatively to the communities where it operates.

"At Alpha, we believe there is a higher purpose to what we do: we are enablers of prosperity.  We are fueling progress around the world," said Kevin Crutchfield, Alpha's chief executive officer.  "Coal is an affordable, abundant energy source that plays a key role in providing electricity and steel.  Access to reliable, affordable electricity and products produced with steel have the profound impact of improving the lives of individuals across the world.  For these reasons, Alpha and the entire coal industry need to continue to operate in a sustainable manner."
