"We are excited to be driving continued growth within Nash County and creating jobs that rely on high caliber technology for the future," said Steve Pinkston, Cummins Rocky Mount Engine Plant Manager. "Cummins is focused on Destination Zero and getting there as quickly as possible. We need engagement from federal, state, and local governments like Nash County to achieve our goals and we are grateful for their support. When we receive engagement from local partners like this, it helps us move faster toward a more sustainable future."
