Ohio EPA announced a new Environmental Insurance Program (EIP) offered through the Ohio EPA’s Site Assistance and Brownfield Revitalization (SABR) Office.  The EIP makes Ohio EPA Voluntary Action Program (VAP) staff available to make an “insurance readiness” review of assessment and remediation documentation.  In turn, participants are able to get quotes from three insurance providers for Pollution Legal Liability insurance at up 10% off the standard premium rates.  Providers currently participating in the program include:  ACE Environmental Risk, Great American Insurance Company and Navigator’s Specialty Insurance Company.  For more information on the program, click here and here.
