Railroads carry some hazardous freight and it is of the utmost importance for our customers, our employees and the communities we operate in that we handle these shipments safely.

Operating free of accidents and injuries has long been part of BNSF’s vision and our focus has been on proactively preventing accidents before they happen. BNSF建立了一个网站 www.BNSFhazmat.com 作为一种与急救人员沟通的方式. 通过使用这个网站，急救人员可以:

• 参加BNSF危险品在线培训
• 安排BNSF危险品培训
• 下载BNSF系统应急计划摘要
• 申请一份危险品交通流量报告
• 请求访问AskRail™

While we have made significant progress in reducing the likelihood of a hazmat incident, we also want to ensure that BNSF and the communities we serve are properly prepared to respond if an incident were to occur. 为了实现这个BNSF有:

• In 2020, we provided hazmat training to more than 9,000 responders across our network.
• earned the national TRANSCAER® (Transportation 社区 Awareness and Emergency Response) award 20 times in recognition of our national outreach efforts to help communities prepare for and respond to possible hazardous material incidents.
• more than 160 trained hazmat responders and hazmat advisors at 60 locations 在我们的网络.
• developed relationships with an extensive network of professional emergency response contractors and industrial fire fighters along our right of way.
