and
Distinguished's Pollution Legal Liability Plus (PLLP) protects against environmental liabilities that are not typically covered by a General Liability (GL) policy. The PLLP policy provides coverage for clean-up costs, bodily injury, property damage (including natural resource damage) and legal expenses for new and/or historical pollution conditions on, at, under, or migrating from or through a covered location or an indoor contaminant condition at a covered location. The PLLP policy also provides coverage for mortgage protection, diminution in value, business interruption, non-owned disposal sites, transportation of an insured's wastes or products, and contracting services.
