JCH Environmental is proud to be an affiliate member of the National Association of Chemical Distributors (NACD).

Chemical distributors operate in a dynamic environment where numerous business risks and challenges exist. For distributors, as in any industry, choosing the right partners is essential. At JCH Environmental we understand the risks of the chemical industry, and are committed to partnering with NACD members to provide thoughtful, comprehensive risk management services.

What Are the Risks?

Chemical distribution is one of many industries that face significant environmental risks even though they are not in the "environmental" business. The risks can include:

• Spills and releases of chemicals caused by fire, explosion, human error and equipment defects, to name a few
• Liability for the transportation and disposal of waste material
• Liability to third parties, including property damage, bodily injury and "toxic tort" claims
• Legacy environmental liability arising from prior operations or through acquisitions of other corporations or their assets

JCH Environmental provides their clients with the risk management expertise necessary to manage the environmental risks that NACD members face. Our staff of environmental attorneys, engineers and insurance experts provides solutions on how to best protect against environmental risk.

Of course, the risks don't end with environmental concerns. Other risks and concerns facing NACD members are:

• Chemical security and Homeland Security requirements
