Charah Solutions Receives Southern Company Triangle Safety Award For Outstanding Safety Performance

LOUISVILLE, KY / ACCESSWIRE / January 11, 2022 / Charah® Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:CHRA) (the "Company"), a leading provider of mission-critical environmental services and byproduct sales to the power generation industry, has received the Southern Company Technical & Project Solutions (T&PS) Triangle Safety Award for outstanding performance for work completed within the Southern Company system in 2020.

The coveted Triangle Safety Award is presented annually to recognize select contractors whose safety performance on Southern Company (NYSE: SO) projects meet exceptionally high standards including:

  • Achieved top-quartile status for the Safety Through Everyone's Participation (STEP) observation rate among Southern Company contractors AND maintained a minimum STEP observation rate of 5 observations per 1,000 work hours each month throughout the year for all work, including subcontracted work.
  • Maintained 100-percent participation in project walk-downs and/or site assessments.
  • Have zero open safety-related corrective action items and achieved top-quartile status for timeliness of corrective action completion.
  • Have zero open safety nonconformance reports (SNCRs) and achieved top-quartile status of contractors with fewest SNCRs issued.
  • Have not caused an outage or damage to Southern Company property in excess of $10,000.
  • Contractor's total work hours must exceed a minimum number in order to qualify for the award.

Charah Solutions is an industry-leader in safety excellence with a 2020 Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) of 0.36 with no lost time or restricted time injuries and an impressive three-year average Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of less than 0.7.

In 2020, Charah Solutions performed work on four different Southern Company sites. One of the larger projects included an approximate 100-acre surface impoundment closure project. The multi-year scope of work includes the installation of new rail as well as improvements to existing rail infrastructure, and the construction of a large concrete loadout area.

In addition, over the next several years as the closure of the ponds is underway, approximately 2 million tons of ash from the site is anticipated to be beneficially used in the production of Portland Cement. Along with improving the finished concrete product quality, using fly ash in concrete products eliminates the need to dispose of fly ash in landfills. In 2020, Charah Solutions beneficiated and recycled 2.58 million tons of coal combustion residuals (CCRs), saving more than 2.24 million tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere.

"We are honored to receive this prestigious award from the Southern Company in recognition of our team's uncompromising commitment every single day to keep our workplaces and employees safe," said Scott Sewell, President and CEO of Charah Solutions. "At Charah Solutions, Safety is a core value and integral to our culture. Congratulations to our project teams for this outstanding recognition."

Charah Solutions receives the Southern Company Triangle Safety Award for construction safety excellence on Technical & Project Solutions (T&PS) projects.
