BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Coverage for both facility owners and third-party transportation companies is backed by Atain Insurance Co., part of the H.W. Kaufman Financial Group Inc. family of companies, according to an RB Jones statement.

The product includes all cannabis, hemp and CBD products, and targeted classes of business include the entire supply chain, from growers, cultivators and hemp/CBD manufacturers to distributors and dispensaries, the statement said.

Limits offered for coverage are $250,000 for cannabis in transit any one covered vehicle; $25,000 cash in transit any one covered vehicle; $5,000 any one unattended vehicle and $25,000 for debris removal, according to an email from a spokeswoman.
