Because YOU ARE an involved party
Environmental liability is NOT civil liability.
Civil Liability insurance does NOT COVER environmental liability.
Contamination liability is often excluded from general liability insurance.
Therefore, with few exceptions, Environmental Liability Insurance generally
includes another complementary insurance for civil liability for third-party damage due to contamination.
This is the case for virtually all insurance managed by the Pool.

According to the Environmental Liability Act, this applies only to damage occurring after it has come into effect, although others, such as the Soil Law, also exist.
HOW LONG IS THE LIMITATION PERIOD FOR A CLAIM FOR DAMAGE AGAINST ME?
Liability lapses after 30 years.
WHAT AM I OBLIGATED TO DO IF I AM ENVIRONMENTALLY LIABLE?
To repair the damage and return the environment to its condition immediately prior to the event
WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I HAVE A CLAIM?
