National Society of Consulting Soil Scientists - NSCSS

Liability Insurance

NSCSS has officially endorsed the liability insurance program available from this firm

Professional Liability Insurance Available To Consulting Soil Scientists The main liability exposure for Soil Scientists involves potential Errors and Omissions actions resulting from consulting and testing activities. Unfortunately, standard General Liability policies excludes professional services claims. This coverage is only available through a Professional Liability policy, which is typically quite expensive relative to a general liability policy, and out of the reach of the average Soil Scientist.

After literally years of searching, the National Society of Consulting Soil Scientists, Inc. has negotiated an unprecedented insurance program for Soil Scientists throughout North America. This is a great value and available in all states! Coverage is available to consulting Soil Scientist individuals and firms who are members or associates of the National Society of Consulting Soil Scientists, Inc.

A "preferred rate" is offered to NSCSS Registered Professional Soil Scientists (RPSS), and there is a minimum base premium of $2000, and a basic deductible of $5000. This is the same coverage as we have had in the past, plus there are additional benefits. They are willing to write additional riders if you need more than the standard $1 Million/$2 Million coverage. The application process is very straightforward, taking less than an hour to complete.

At the start of 2004, NSCSS members utilizing this program will be invoiced a service fee of $35 with their membership renewal, and members who are part of the Registry (RPSS) will be invoiced $50.00. This is to provide overall E & O protection coverage for the Society, the Registry program, and the Society's officers.
