Learn Why 'Pollution' is NOT Excluded by the CGL's Absolute Pollution Exclusion

Thursday, November 11, 2010 | 1:30PM ET

Never let it be said that an insurance carrier would grasp at any possible means to deny a claim; but the absolute pollution exclusion is likely the most misapplied exclusion within the commercial general liability (CGL) policy.

In fact, the exclusion contains seven explicit or implied exceptions that extend coverage under certain conditions.

Reasons for improper denials are varied, ranging from the claim adjuster's misunderstanding of the injury's or damage's true proximate cause, to a complete lack of understanding regarding the exclusion itself. Courts also contribute to misapplication because of inconsistent rulings among jurisdictions.
