ABOUT US

Cross-Sound Cable Company is committed to the environment and the well-being of our employees, communities, and contractors. As such, we strive to achieve excellence in health, safety, security, and environmental performance. In 2018, we furthered the development of an Environmental, Health, and Safety Policy, communicated our commitments to our major contractors, and established a stakeholder engagement plan for 2018 and 2019.

CSC is actively managing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) risks in its operations and advancing sustainability initiatives within the organization. We recognize that we are responsible for ensuring the health and safety of our employees, contractors, and members of our local communities. In support of these objectives, we aim to comply with all applicable health and safety regulations, maintain a safe working environment for our employees and contractors, and take steps to mitigate our environmental impacts over time. This includes reducing our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and waste, as well as taking steps to protect local biodiversity and habitats.

In 2024, we made progress in the following areas:

• Worked with reputable waste management vendors, such as Clean Harbor, to dispose of all non-hazardous waste
• Conducted a Materiality Risk Assessment, reviewing policies and procedures to identify, analyze, evaluate, and treat material risks, including:
• • Environmental: biodiversity and habitat, energy, greenhouse gas emissions, hazardous substances, physical risk, and water outflows/discharges
  • Social: community development, customer satisfaction, stakeholder relations, and health and safety of the community, employees, and supply chain
  • Governance: Board ESG oversight, conflicts of interest, cybersecurity, data protection and privacy, delegating authority, fraud, lobbying activities, political contributions, shareholder rights, and whistle-blower protection
• Reported no significant health & safety incidents during the reporting period
• Included ESG considerations in annual business plan review
• Completed training for all employees, including topics like health and safety and cybersecurity
