Product Summary
Contractors Pollution Liability insurance is designed to address environmental liability associated with the job-site operations of contractors. Contractors face many pollution risks stemming from operations at their job sites. These include contaminated soil disposal and the accidental release of fuel oil, chemicals and/or toxic gases from broken pipelines, utilities and stationary and mobile fuel tanks. Pollution Liability insurance helps protect liability when a covered operation results in a pollution incident.
What's Covered?
Available on either a claims-made or an occurrence basis, the Contractors Pollution Liability insurance policy helps protect contractors against pollution conditions caused by covered operations including work performed by subcontractors. Covered losses include third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage, cleanup costs, defense costs and environmental damage resulting from pollution conditions caused by the performance of covered operations.
What Isn't Covered?
A Contractors Pollution Liability policy is not comprehensive general liability coverage. It does provide protection against third-party claims typically excluded under a commercial general liability policy.
What Affects the Cost of the Policy?
The premium is based on the limits of liability and specific contractor needs.
