"A strong commitment to sustainable development and safety is inextricably tied to the long-term success of Tronox," said Tronox Chairman and CEO Tom Casey.

We make these investments because we believe it is our responsibility to do so. And, in taking these actions, we bring sustainable operating programs and long-term cost efficiencies to our business that contribute to our overriding business goal."
