Can someone explain this??

For once I agree with Gayrod. Not about his penis sucking fetish.

Build a large building and it will get hit with lightning. So you have to design for lightning protection.

Commercial fuel storage tank owners have long been required to provide secondary containment around their tanks. Tanks can fail due to any number of reasons. Why should a distiller be exempt from such a common sense requirement?

OR; you could take your hurt feelings, polish them up nice and shiny, turn then side ways, and shove them back up your ass; because you're the one who brought up the idea of a "berm".

Sure it was, lightning is a foreseeable risk and if you store a product next to a river, and weather causes that product to pollute the river, its a natural cost of doing business that you have to clean up after yourself, even if you are a big business. Personal responsibility.

If lightning strikes and burns my house, Code Enforcement is going to make me clean the mess.

OH, really.

Then you'll be able to tell me where it's going to strike next; plus are you suggesting that if your house fire sets your neighbors house on fire, that you're responsible!!

:popcorn:

BS and you know it.

That's like saying if the car company hadn't built the car, then the accident wouldn't have happed.

GAWD you suck at being supposed lawyer. :palm:

Until it's been shown that due diligence regarding lighting protection, wasn't followed and that a secondary containment was required and ignored; I'll stick with them not being responsible.
 
This seems to be the reason that they would purchase insurance, much like we do. If my house catches fire, for a reason other than arson, I have to pay for the cleanup, usually we don't even think of the cost because we are all required to have insurance that winds up paying for it.

The operations didn't cause it.

If you lefties didn't support illegals being here, Kate Steinle and Mollie Tibbetts would be alive.

Why do you insist that GovCo be involved at all? People (corporations are groups of people) have a responsibility to mitigate damages that they cause, regardless of the circumstances.

Only your bank requires you to have insurance. Pay off your mortgage and you can fire your insurer the next day. I wouldn't advise that...

That you admit it was weather discredits your claims it was their operations.

If lightning strikes and burns your house, I hope you get stuck inside.

That's why, at least in my State, the only insurance you have to carry on a vehicle is liability and uninsured motorists.

Although I haven't had a car loan in many, many years, at the time when I did, the collision and comprehensive coverage I was required to carry was a result of the lending institution requirements not the State.

That's why, when my kids turned 16, they each got a cheap used car. I saved bigly on my insurance by doing that. I informed each of them that their insurance was to pay for the other guy, not for them, so if they wreck it, it's broke until they save the money to fix it. Neither one got so much as a traffic ticket while they were under my roof.

The uninsured motorists requirement is a way to protect yourself in case the other guy/gal is so irresponsible he/she doesn't do his/her part.

To a point, the cheap used car is a good idea. The problem comes in when too cheap costs more to repair than buying something that costs a little more that doesn't have as much potential of breaking down.

Mine were told that if they were the cause of the wreck or they got a moving violation that produced higher insurance, they paid the difference and didn't drive until they could.

True, I wouldn't advise it. It's possible that this company is self-insuring as well. Either way, if my house was hit by lightning and burned down I would have to pay for the cleanup.

I'm not insisting that GovCo be involved; but my responses were addressing something that someone else brought up.

Saying that they caused this, without any evidence of them being negligent, is like someone blaming a car manufacturer for an accident, without showing that the car company was responsible for the accident.

But if the sparks set your neighbor(s) house on fire or maybe more then one neighbors homes, would you be responsible to pay for their cleanup also??

If I kept gallons of liquid alcohol on site and it flowed into the river and killed fish I would have to pay for the cleanup.

Is keeping liquid alcohol on site, part of your business??

And, that really didn't address the house fire and your neighbor(s).
