Product Highlight: Pollution Legal Liability
Pollution Legal Liability (PLL) policies were once purchased exclusively by federally regulated facilities as a financial assurance alternative to comply with federal statutes. The versatility of PLL policies has evolved over the years, and today its applicability is far more widespread. PLL coverage fills the “environmental gap” left in most general liability policies for property owners and facility or site operators.
A broad range of industries including manufacturing, warehousing, commercial/habitational real estate, hospitality, healthcare, education, energy/oil & gas and agriculture are purchasing PLL to insure against environmental loss. PLL can be structured to meet regulatory obligations, contract requirements, lender requirements, risk management
objectives, and more. PLL can be tailored and enhanced to meet the specific needs of each risk.
