Environmental

What is environmental coverage?
Environmental coverage generally falls into two categories. Errors and omissions coverage, also known as professional liability, protects a professional who mistakenly designs a facility that causes pollution in some way. Pollution incident coverage protects professionals on the job in case they cause a pollution incident by perhaps backing into a sewage pipe.

Why do I need environmental coverage?
Accidents happen. Designers never intend their projects to harm the environment nor do they intend to cause an environmental incident. Pollution coverage provides a layer of security in case something does happen.
