Dear Michelle -
Today, we are releasing Mighty Earth's Rapid Response report 29. which documents recent deforestation and/or peatland development in concessions in Indonesia and Sarawak, Malaysia. The following are new cases of deforestation and/or peatland development (in order of appearance in report 29) with known supply chain links. They are listed by Group, if known, then by concession name. Parna Raya: PT Mitra Andalan Sejahtera Rimbunan Hijau: PJP Pelita Lundu Plantation Sdn Bhd
The following are unresolved cases of deforestation and/or peatland development (in order of appearance in report 29) with known supply chain links: Capitol Group: PT Medco Papua Hijau Selaras Widya Corporation: PT Mulia Inti Perkasa Rimbunan Hijau: Poh Zhen Sdn Bhd
The report also includes 4 new cases and 22 repeat cases of deforestation and/or peatland development that were identified using filtered GLAD alerts, but for which we did not conduct satellite image analysis because. For the new cases, we could not determine any supply chain links, and for the repeat cases, satellite analysis was already included in previous Rapid Response reports. Mighty Earth expects that palm oil traders and biofuel companies conduct their own due diligence to determine if they are exposed to the companies/Groups for which we could not determine supply chain links. Further, traders and biofuel companies without supply chain links to these cases should put them on their ‘no buy’ lists. Please confirm this action will be taken.
Please see attached a copy of the Rapid Response report for full information, including GPS coordinates, satellite imagery showing recent deforestation and peat development, and what we know regarding supply chain links and company ownership. The supply chain links, which are based on mill disclosures and recent export data, are: Parna Raya appears to sell (directly or indirectly) to AAK, Bunge, and Fuji Oil. Rimbunan Hijau appears to sell (directly or indirectly) to AAK, ADM, BLD, Bunge, Cargill, Felda IFFCO, Fuji Oil, IOI, KLK, Neste, Sime Darby, and Wilmar. Capitol Group appears to sell (directly or indirectly) to AAK, ADM, Bunge, Cargill, Fuji Oil, Neste, Olam, Sime Darby, and Wilmar. Widya Corporation appears to sell (directly or indirectly) to AAK, Astra, Bunge, Cargill, Fuji Oil,

Olam, Sime Darby, and Wilmar.
As mentioned in the cover email with Rapid Response report 13 and subsequent emails, Mighty Earth is including cases where any plantation group is found to be involved in deforestation and/or peatland development, regardless of whether the activities are for oil palm or any other plantation. How palm oil traders and biofuel companies address such grievances will be assessed as part of our Rapid Response Trader Tracking’ grievance performance system.
Please provide us with an update on your engagement, or if your grievance tracker has been updated recently on these cases, let us know so we can review. We ask for your reply no later than July 16, 2020, but if you need to delay your response due to the ongoing pandemic, please let us know when you will able to respond.
Thanks, and stay safe! Asha

Additional cases identified using screened GLAD alerts
The following cases have been identified through screened GLAD alerts (see methodology below). As these cases are either repeat cases from previous Rapid Response reports or where Mighty Earth did not determine any supply chain links for these concessions/groups, no satellite image analysis was conducted for these cases to save resources.
Mighty Earth expects that palm oil traders and biofuel companies conduct their own satellite image analysis of these cases and, if confirmed to be deforestation/peatland development, conduct due diligence to determine if they are exposed to associated companies/groups.
Methodology: For Indonesia, GLAD alerts are screened using the Indonesia Ministry of Forestry and the Environment land cover dataset for 2017 which classifies existing palm oil plantations and primary and secondary forest. Hence, only GLAD alerts in primary and secondary forest according to that dataset are included.
For Malaysia, GLAD alerts are screened to exclude known plantation areas using the Global Forest Watch (GFW) plantations dataset. This automatically eliminates the most common false positives, i.e. the replanting of palm that existed prior to the year 2000.
