Property and Business Interruption Insurance Claims and Recoveries
NOTE 16:
PROPERTY AND BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE CLAIMS AND RECOVERIES

During October 2016, the Company experienced a chemical release at its Atchison facility. The reaction resulted in emissions venting into the air. The appropriate regulatory agencies were notified and investigations continue. Injuries were reported and treated at area hospitals. The Company continues to work with its environmental insurance carrier on this claim (see Note 8).
During October 2014, the Company experienced a fire at its Atchison facility.  Certain equipment in the facility's feed drying operations was damaged, but repairable, and the Company experienced a seven day temporary loss of production. The Company reached final settlement with its insurance carrier to close this claim during the quarter ended March 31, 2015.

During January 2014, the Company experienced a fire at its Lawrenceburg facility.  The fire damaged certain equipment in the feed dryer house and caused a temporary loss of production. The fire did not impact the Company's own or customer owned warehoused inventory. In December 2014, the Company negotiated a final settlement with its insurance carrier to close this claim. As part of the settlement, the Company assumed the risk of all future business interruption until permanent repairs were completed.
