Two companies owned by Stan Kroenke have sued an insurance firm over cleanup of arsenic-contaminated soil at development billionaire is building in Inglewood.

SoFi Stadium, the most expensive NFL stadium ever built, will open July 25 and 26, 2020, with back-to-back Taylor Swift concerts.

In November 2015, the lawsuit said, the plaintiffs discovered arsenic levels in the soil that were “dozens of times higher” than found in the surrounding area in addition to unspecified levels of lead. The land, which included a hotel in the northwestern corner from 1974 to 1994, had been used as a paved parking lot for decades.

The rest of the development, once home to the Hollywood Park racetrack, has been under a soil management plan overseen by the L.A. Regional Water Quality Control Board since 2007 to address chemicals, including arsenic, found in the soil. Between March 2015 and October 2015, for example, 83,000 tons of arsenic-contaminated soil from another part of the site were removed and trucked to landfills in Castaic and Yuma, Ariz.Though Chubb agreed in October 2016 to reimburse “reasonable and necessary” costs to remediate the 60 acres, the lawsuit said, the company “failed and refused” to pay more than $430,000 of the $5-million policy.
