3. LONGi Ranks on the Bloomberg Tier 1 List

7. McIlvenna Bay Project Wildfire Update 
   Favourable weather conditions in recent days have played a key role in slowing the fire's advance.

While the regional wildfire is still categorized as not contained, conditions at site are stabilizing, with no present need to deploy fire attenuation systems and no damage sustained to any project infrastructure.
