Georgia Pacific has named Mike Sieling, a Dart contractor, as its Dedicated Driver of the Year, the first year for the award.
"Mike stood out head and shoulders above the rest of the nominees," said Kae Reis, transportation manager at Georgia Pacific. "His safety record, fuel conservation management, tenure with both Dart Transit and the Collaborative Dedicated fleet, and on-time delivery record made him the obvious choice."
