Popis:	The buzz out of Louisiana of late has been mostly related to insurance for losses arising from Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. But Louisiana continues to be a critical jurisdiction for insurance claims of companies in the energy and chemical industries. And for such claims, Louisiana has correctly held that claims involving negligent exposure to a potentially dangerous substance do not always fall within the ambit of so-called pollution exclusions, just because the substance could be characterized as a “contaminant” or “pollutant.”
