"This award is a tribute to our employees who continue to demonstrate their commitment to making a difference to the environment," said Karl Smith, President and CEO.  "These positive impacts are being felt today, and will continue to impact future generations as well.  It's an award that all Newfoundland Power employees should be very proud of."
