Contractors Pollution Liability (CPL)

Available on either a claims-made or an occurrence basis, the Contractors Pollution Liability 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, and environmental damage resulting from pollution conditions caused by the performance of covered operations, both on-site and migrating from the  job site, and third-party claims against the Insured alleging improper supervision of subcontractors.  Coverage is also provided for those Emergency Response Costs incurred by the Insured resulting from pollution conditions requiring immediate action.
