The Industry Wide Event will be limited in overall attendance due to several factors, e.g., number of tour participants to conduct through each plant location. Once the threshold of participants has been met, those desiring to attend will be put on a wait list. The limitation of participants is necessary to ensure a positive experience for the event attendees and plant tour locations. Wait list attendees will be added to the event on a first registered basis.
