Environmental and Pollution Insurance
Many residential and commercial buildings face a silent catastrophe waiting to happen: the leaking of fuel from both above and underground storage tanks. Pollution is specifically excluded or limited under the General Liability section or in General Liability policies. The cost to clean up spills can range from $10,000 to millions of dollars before any lawsuits are lodged.
Building Owners Face The Following Risks:
- It Is Incredibly Expensive To Clean Up Fuel Spills.
- Building Owners Are Subject To Pollution Lawsuits That Are Costly To Defend.
- Absolute Liability Is Placed On The Building Owner Under Navigation Law.
- Building Owners Are Subject To Pollution Lawsuits That Result In Large Awards.
