PRSC awards honors champions in Permian Basin Road Safety
Mar. 5—MIDLAND — At its 3rd annual Road Safety Champions Awards event, the Permian Road Safety Coalition (PRSC) recognized several individuals and organizations for their outstanding commitment to responsible driving and safety in 2024. "We received a record number of nominations for these awards, which recognize drivers, first responders, and company programs that are making a positive difference in road safety across the Permian Basin," PRSC President & CEO Michael Smith said in a news release. "Their contributions to enhancing road safety truly set the mark for us all. We thank Texas Mutual for its sponsorship again this year." Receiving the "Second to None" Award was Eddy County, New Mexico, Fire & Rescue Chief Josh Mack. This award recognizes a Permian Basin first responder who has demonstrated heroic action in service to our community. Chief Mack partnered with PRSC to launch an initiative to help "rehome" excess lifesaving equipment to Dell City, Texas, Fire & EMS. Texas Department of Public Safety Sergeant Steven Blanco received the "Front Seat Driver" Award for his leadership in assisting the PRSC in executing the local infrastructure improvement strike team — a targeted campaign to improve roadway intersections with recorded frequent crashes and fatalities. The "No Need for Speed" Award honored Jesse Madrano with Chevron. This award recognizes a driver who has demonstrated exemplary driving habits. Madrano drove 1,023 hours in 2024 with zero infractions recorded by onboard technology. Michael Sims and Danny Yeager with Western Midstream received the "Safe and Sound" Award, which recognizes health, safety & environmental professionals who have demonstrated a total commitment to road safety during their careers. The Business Partner Safety Improvement Council (a collaboration among Chevron, Ranger, SLB, and Ryder) received "The Extra Mile" Award. The co-winners were recognized for programs implemented during the past two years that have positively impacted safety metrics inside their companies, outside their companies, or both. Ranger Energy Services representative Jim Kulis was also honored with "The Extra Mile" Award. Under Kulis' leadership, Ranger implemented an internal road safety program that resulted in a dramatic decrease in vehicle incidents over a twenty-four month period. The Permian Road Safety Coalition (PRSC) is based in Midland and leads a collaborative effort with oil and natural gas operators, oil field service and transportation companies, non-governmental and governmental organizations to improve road safety and reduce the number of traffic-related injuries and deaths in the Permian Basin.
