Recycling
Recycling railroad ties, oil, batteries and other materials significantly reduces BNSF’s overall environmental footprint and waste.
Legacy
Sites
BNSF is meeting the challenge of addressing environmental impacts at legacy sites where rail operations have been conducted
for a century or more. In the past five years, BNSF has invested more than $315 million on remediation efforts throughout our
network and has completed work and rehabilitated more than 140 sites.
