Immediate Reporting Upon the discovery of a “Pollution Condition”,
the insured shall make every attempt to mitigate any loss and comply with applicable “environmental laws”. The insurer shall have the right, but not the duty, to mitigate such “Pollution Conditions” if, in the sole judgment of the insurer, the insured fails to take reasonable steps to do so. In that event, any remediation costs incurred by the insurer shall be deemed incurred by the insured, and shall be subject to the self insured retention and the limits of liability.
