From the supplier: Insurers are finding that many accidents are being excluded under commercial general liability (CGL) insurance policies because they are being labeled as pollution claims. Such diverse incidents as an apparent act of worker negligence in over-spraying paint onto a building that resulted in damage to nearby cars or a slip-and-fall accident when a shopper stumbles on some spilled bleach have been renamed and denied coverage under the 1985 revised CGL form. Independent agents and other insurers are objecting to the exclusion.
