ACO.Y ATCO Ltd

ATCO Group today released its biennial Sustainability Report, which provides
information about ATCO's commitments and management approach in four areas:
Environment, Health & Safety, Employees and Communities.


"Whether we are providing essential utility services, delivering innovative
modular construction or enabling the resource sector through our energy
services, our businesses touch people's lives on a daily basis," said Nancy
Southern, Chair, President & Chief Executive Officer, ATCO.


"Communities where our people work and live around the world trust us to operate
safely and efficiently and to be a contributing community member. This report is
a demonstration of the measures we take throughout our operations to earn trust
and to support our communities and our people."


The report, which provides an overview for 2011-2012, highlights a number of
initiatives in each of the four areas:




--  New energy efficient operating centres - a new ATCO Gas Operations
    Centre opened in Airdrie in 2011; a new ATCO Electric Operations Centre
    opened in Lloydminster in 2012, and there are two more scheduled for
    2013 in Okotoks and Jandakot, Australia. 
    
--  Safety performance and milestones - ATCO's lost-time injury rate has
    declined by more than 50 per cent since 2008 and ATCO Pipelines achieved
    zero lost-time injuries for more than 10 consecutive years. 
    
--  Employee programs - ATCO enhanced the Employee Share Purchase Program
    and the ATCO Flex health and dental programs to provide more options and
    flexibility for employees. 
    
--  Large scale public consultation - after extensive public consultation,
    the Eastern Alberta Transmission Line project is going forward, and
    public consultation was undertaken for ATCO
    Pipelines' Urban Pipeline Replacement Project. 
    
--  Giving back generously - ATCO Employees Participating In Communities
    (EPIC) employee giving, together with the ATCO company match, set a new
    record of $3.4 million in 2012. ATCO employees volunteered more than
    72,000 hours of their time during 2011-12.
