assessment of its goods movement and
freight activity. Partners also receive a set
of comprehensive and detailed reports on their
company's environmental performance and operational efficiency,

SMARTWAY SHIPPER AND LOGISTICS COMPANY AWARDS
The 2020 SmartWay Excellence Award for shippers and logistics
management companies honor Partners that are helping build a
market for clean and efficient freight transportation by shipping
virtually all of their products and merchandise (98 % of miles or
ton-miles for shippers and 80% of miles or ton-miles for logistics
Partners) with high-performing SmartWay carriers. SmartWay
shipper and logistics Award winners also were selected based
on achieving superior environmental and efficiency benchmarks
among all other SmartWay Partners. These performance bench-
marks for shippers and logistics Partners were derived through
an assessment of their carriers' carbon dioxide (CO2), particulate
matter (PM), and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions measured in
grams per mile.
Within the shipper and logistics management categories, EPA
proudly recognizes 15 of its shippers and two of its logistics
Partners as recipients of a 2020 SmartWay Excellence Award.
These shipper and logistics Award winners are congratulated
for their achievements in choosing to work with high-perform-

Partners and include large, medium and small firms that move a
