ALTOONA, Pa. -- CLI Transport LP, the dedicated fuel and food carrier for Sheetz Convenience Restaurants, has received the American Trucking Association (ATA) President's Trophy for attaining the highest standards of safety for 2012. This marks the third year that CLI has received the award, which recognizes superior safety achievements, outstanding commitment to industry-wide safety and extensive promotion of safety among all highway users.
