"ATCO's businesses are part of the everyday life of the communities where we have the privilege to live and serve," said Nancy Southern, President & Chief Executive Officer, ATCO Group. "Our responsibility to provide opportunity and a sustainable footprint for future generations is paramount to the people of ATCO Group."

The Sustainability Report covers the calendar years 2009-2010 and details ATCO's commitments and management approach in four key areas: Communities, Health & Safety, Employees and Environment. ATCO is pleased to report marked improvement in each of these areas. Highlights of the report include:

--  Safety Performance: ATCO's lost-time injury rate declined 44 per cent.
    Several of ATCO's facilities did not incur a single lost-time injury
    during this period. 
--  The ATCO Advantage for Employees: ATCO's strength is its diversity. With
    nine principal operating subsidiaries, employees are offered a broad
    spectrum of experiences. 
--  Environmentally Friendly Buildings: ATCO Gas opened two new
    environmentally friendly operations centres and completed construction
    of a third, including the North Edmonton Operations Centre (NEOC). NEOC
    is the largest commercial building in Canada to make use of geothermal
    heating and cooling technology fuelled by natural gas. 
--  Public Consultation: ATCO is committed to substantial and meaningful
    consultation for communities and landowners on all major projects,
    facilities and services. 
--  Community Participation: Through ATCO EPIC (Employees Participating in
    Communities), ATCO and its employees donated $3.0 million to more than
    500 charities across Alberta in 2010. 
--  Increased Disclosure: Our reports are based on Global Reporting
    Initiative's Sustainability Reporting Guidelines. This year's report has
    55 per cent more performance indicators compared to the previous report.
