Koppers Inc., which did not identify its customer, began supplying the approximately 360,000 railroad crossties last month for tracks being installed for West African mining operations.

Deliveries are expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2009, a spokesman said.

Most of the work will be done in the company's Grenada, Miss., facility with contributions from other Koppers sites.
