UNIONDALE, N.Y., July 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Petrone Risk, a nationally recognized leader in safety, security, emergency preparedness, and risk management consulting, is proud to announce that its Safety and Security Risk Management Consulting services have been granted a SAFETY Act (Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies Act) acknowledgment from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of SAFETY Act Implementation. The acknowledgment was approved on July 24, 2026, and extends through August 31, 2029.

The SAFETY Act was established to encourage the development and deployment of effective anti-terrorism technologies and services by providing crucial liability protections for qualified providers. The acknowledgment recognizes qualified technologies and services that demonstrate effectiveness in helping organizations prevent, deter, respond to, and mitigate acts of terrorism.

This significant milestone underscores the firm’s commitment to delivering industry-leading safety, security, risk management, and preparedness solutions. As the threat landscape continues to evolve and become increasingly complex, the acknowledgment reinforces the firm’s longstanding commitment to provide clients the expertise, strategic guidance, and mission-focused solutions needed to protect people, assets, and operations through comprehensive risk assessments, operational planning, emergency preparedness, training, and security program development.

“Years of deep partnership and collaboration with our clients and the Office of SAFETY Act Implementation have led us to reach the pinnacle of SAFETY Act acknowledgment for our very own Technology. The lessons we have learned as part of this community have shaped the very fabric of our team’s culture and service offerings and paved the way for this monumental achievement,” said Kathy Lupia, Chief Risk Officer and Senior Managing Director of Petrone Risk. “In our role as SAFETY Act preparer, we have treated each client interaction and supporting SAFETY Act submission as an opportunity to learn and further the anti-terrorism mission that sits at the core of the codification of the SAFETY Act. Petrone Risk’s recently secured SAFETY Act protections underscore the effectiveness and validity of our methodologies. Our motivation to secure protections is broader than realizing the internal organizational benefits; we saw this as a way to give back to our unparalleled client community and overall, promote the anti-terrorism mission.”

For over a decade, Petrone Risk has worked alongside professional sports organizations, educational institutions, healthcare systems, government agencies, critical infrastructure operators, and private-sector organizations to develop, implement, and enhance security and emergency preparedness programs. The firm has also assisted several venues, organizations, and technology providers in successfully obtaining DHS SAFETY Act protections for their own security programs and technologies.

The acknowledged consulting services include the review and assessment of physical security programs, design, development, and implementation of operational policies, plans, and procedures, emergency preparedness planning, training initiatives, and security program documentation designed to improve organizational readiness and resilience.

In HelloNation, Insurance Expert Sissy LeClair-Blackadar Examines General Liability Insurance Before Bigger Contracting Jobs

The Article Reviews How Contractors Can Evaluate General Liability Insurance Before Taking on Larger Commercial Projects.

LONGWOOD, Fla., July 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — What does general liability insurance actually cover for contractors? A HelloNation article now answers this question, outlining how this coverage helps contractors manage the everyday risks that come with bigger jobs.

The article explains that contractors take on new risk every time they start a project, from a dropped tool to accidental damage on a client’s property. General liability insurance is designed to help contractors manage these everyday risks before a small mistake turns into a costly claim.

According to the article, property damage claims are among the most common reasons contractors file a general liability claim. A cracked foundation, a burst pipe, or damaged landscaping can all lead to a dispute with a client or a neighboring property owner.

The article also describes how bodily injury claims work differently from property damage claims. These claims involve a client, visitor, or passerby who is hurt because of the work being performed, and medical costs can add up quickly without the right coverage in place.

Completed operations coverage is highlighted as another important part of many policies. The article notes that this protection addresses claims that surface after a project is finished, which matters most for work that is not visible once complete, such as plumbing, electrical, or structural repairs.

Subcontractor relationships receive attention as well. The article recommends confirming that every subcontractor carries active coverage and can provide a certificate of insurance before work begins on a site, a step that helps prevent disputes if an incident occurs during the project.

Coverage limits are described as just as important as the policy itself. The article points out that a contractor bidding on larger commercial jobs may need higher general liability insurance limits than one handling smaller residential work, and an umbrella policy can add another layer of protection once those limits are reached.

The article also touches on equipment and vehicles, noting that a general liability policy usually addresses third party claims rather than damage to a contractor’s own tools or trucks. Separate coverage, such as inland marine or commercial auto insurance, often works alongside a general liability policy to close that gap.

The article suggests that contractors document completed work with photos and detailed records, since this practice can support a claim if an issue surfaces months after a project wraps up. Working with an experienced agent also helps match coverage to how a contractor actually operates, since every trade carries different risks.

Insurance Expert Sissy LeClair-Blackadar of Sissy LeClair-Blackadar Insurance Agency Inc. in Longwood, Florida, is featured as the source of insights included in the article. Insurance Experts commonly recommend a regular coverage review, especially before a contractor bids on a larger or more complex contract, since business operations tend to change over time.

The article closes by noting that general liability insurance will not eliminate every risk a contractor faces on the job. It does provide a foundation of protection that can help address some of the most common claims tied to property damage and injury, giving contractors a clearer picture before they bid on new work.

Major financing milestone supported by Power Sustainable advances Canada’s first biofuel plant with integrated CO2 liquefaction technology toward commissioning and commercial operations.

LONDON, ON, July 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Convertus Group is pleased to announce the successful financial close of $135 million in project financing for its flagship biofuel facility located in York Region, Ontario.

The project financing was provided by Power Sustainable Infrastructure Credit (PSIC), with Selkirk Advisory Group serving as financial advisor to Convertus. Financial close represents a significant milestone as the project advances toward commissioning and commercial operations.

The state-of-the-art facility is designed to process up to 200,000 tonnes of source-separated organic waste annually and is expected to produce between 350,000 and 400,000 gigajoules of renewable natural gas each year. In addition to renewable natural gas, the facility will produce low-carbon liquid fertilizer and food-grade liquefied carbon dioxide (CO₂), creating multiple high-value, low-carbon products from a single waste stream while maximizing resource recovery.

“This financing represents a major milestone for Convertus and reflects the confidence that PSIC has placed in our business, our team and our long-term vision,” said Jamie Jongsma, Chief Financial Officer of Convertus Group. “We are grateful for PSIC’s partnership and for the expertise and guidance provided by Selkirk Advisory Group throughout the financing process. This facility represents the next generation of anaerobic digestion infrastructure and demonstrates how innovative technologies can transform organic waste into renewable energy and valuable low-carbon products.”

“The York Biofuel Facility will provide essential environmental infrastructure for York Region and the Greater Toronto Area, adding critical long-term organics processing capacity through a state-of-the-art facility designed with robust operational redundancy. Convertus’ high-caliber team has developed a top-tier project that combines advanced technology with meaningful circular-economy and decarbonization benefits. This financing reflects our focus on supporting experienced operators developing essential infrastructure with strong underlying economics and measurable environmental benefits. We are pleased to support Convertus as the facility advances toward commercial operations,” said Benjamin Shenwick, Principal at Power Sustainable Infrastructure Credit.

The project remains on schedule, with commissioning expected to begin later this year and service commencement anticipated in early 2027. Once operational, the facility will serve as the flagship of Convertus’ growing portfolio of advanced organics infrastructure, demonstrating the company’s ability to deploy leading-edge technologies that transform organic waste into renewable energy and other high-value circular products.
