News From PartnerOne Environmental – November 2021
Account Profile: Sand & Gravel Quarry
The PartnerOne team recently bound an account for a $1.75M sand & gravel quarry. The insured purchased GL, Contractors Pollution Liability, Transportation Pollution Liability, Site Pollution Liability (package limits $1M/$2M) and a $3M/$3M Excess policy for $32,069 in premium.
This insured had been in business for roughly 20 years without any pollution coverage, despite operating a large quarry situated entirely within a flood zone of large navigable river. They also operated a fleet of heavy trucks used for transporting aggregate product. We put together a competitive package that not only picked up their GL exposures, but significantly broadened their coverage to include Site Pollution tied to their facility, Contractors Pollution while loading/unloading product, Transportation Pollution while moving it over the road, and Products Pollution associated with the mined aggregate as well. Terms also included Natural Resource Damage within the definition of property damage, which was particularly important due to the facility’s location along a waterway and associated wooded wetlands.
