HEINEKEN USA and the Recycling Partnership Challenged Soccer Fans to Kick Up Their Recycling Game at the International Champions Cup

HEINEKEN USA teamed up with The Recycling Partnership at the ICC to challenge consumers 21+ to represent their clubs by placing their recyclables in specially-marked bins.

The Importance of Local Knowledge When Preparing an Oil Spill Response Plan

Comprehensive Oil Spill Response Plans have been required for many years for containers with a capacity of 42,000 gallons or more. The goal of these comprehensive OSRPs was to detail specific response requirements in the event of a spill and ensure the transporter had plans and training in place to respond. Since a typical train tanker car only carries about 30,000 gallons, comprehensive OSRPs rarely applied to the rail industry until now.

While some routes and railroads may optionally comply with state and local regulations under the Interstate Commerce Commission Termination Act, many short line railways must be knowledgeable about local regulations that may affect their planning efforts.

Why We Trust Cork To Bottle Up Angel’s Envy® Bourbon

While the heart of ANGEL’S ENVY® is rooted in Kentucky bourbon, its taste is a bit more international. Specifically, Portugal. Portugal is the source of the port casks that give its whiskey its subtle and distinctive flavors. But ANGEL’S ENVY, a Bacardi-owned brand, as well as many other wines and spirits in the Bacardi portfolio including its line of single malts and blended Scotch whiskies, D’USEE® and BARON OTARD® cognacs, and MARTINI® sparkling wines, owe Portugal a debt of gratitude for another surprisingly important contribution: cork.
