Advanced Waste Servs., Inc. v. United Milwaukee Scrap, LLC, No. 2014AP1169

March 3, 2015 by JLO

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

In Advanced Waste Servs., Inc. v. United Milwaukee Scrap, LLC, No. 2014AP1169 (Wis. Ct. App. Mar. 3, 2015), the absolute pollution exclusion clause, found in many Wisconsin insurance policies, applies to bar coverage for any loss involving the dispersal of pollutants, regardless of whether the insured caused the dispersal. This decision is consistent with two other fairly recent Wisconsin cases: Hirschhorn v. Auto-Owners Insurance Co., 2012 WI 20, 338 Wis. 2d 761, 809 N.W.2d 529 and United States Fire Insurance Co. v. Ace Baking Co., 164 Wis. 2d 499, 476 N.W.2d 280 (Ct. App. 1991).
