US Steel appoints Mr Moss as GM logistics services

United States Steel Corporation announced that Mr William Michael Moss has been advanced to the position of general manager logistics services. In this role, Mr Moss is responsible for overseeing all outbound rail, barge and truck operations at US Steel facilities in the United States and Canada.

Mr Moss joined National Steel in 1978 as a yard clerk in the transportation department of the company's Granite City Steel plant in Granite City, Mo. Over the next 13 years, he advanced through positions in the facility's railroad and barge operations. In 1991, he was named director of operations for the Delray Connecting Railroad, which served National's Great Lakes Steel plant in Ecorse and River Rouge, Mich.

When US Steel acquired steelmaking assets from National Steel in 2003, Mr Moss was named movement services manager and relocated to US Steel's Pittsburgh headquarters, where he managed rail and barge operations for the company's US facilities. In 2006, he was promoted to his most recent position, manager-logistics operations, and added management of truck operations to his area of responsibility
