Description
The Oregon courts will not create an ambiguity where none exists. Mortgage Bancorporation v. New Hampshire Ins. Co., 67 Ore. App. 261, 677 P.2d 726, 728 (Or. App. 1984). The pollution exclusion contains no condition or qualification; it simply does not require that the insured discharge the pollutant. Since Oregon courts have not addressed the issue, we look to well-reasoned decisions from other jurisdictions for guidance, Burns v. International Insurance. Co., 929 F.2d 1422, 1424 (9th Cir. 1991), and the Conclusion we have reached is supported by several other circuits. See St. Paul Fire & Marine Ins. v. Warwick Dyeing, 26 F.3d 1195, 1202 (1st Cir. 1994) ("The plain and unambiguous language of the pollution exclusion concerns property damage arising out of the discharge, not its discharge or the insureds discharge."); accord Western World Ins. Co. v. Stack Oil, Inc., 922 F.2d 118, 120 (2nd. Cir. 1990); Northern Ins. Co. v. Aardvark Associates, 942 F.2d 189, 194 (3rd Cir. 1991); Park-Ohio Industries, Inc. v. Home Indem. Co., 975 F.2d 1215, 1221-22 (6th Cir. 1992); USF & G v. George W. Whitesides Co., Inc., 932 F.2d 1169, 1170-71 (6th Cir. 1991).
