8/31/15 IS - 3 0999-08-0120

Umbrella Liability policy equal to the total limit(s) requested. Umbrella or Excess policy wording shall be at least as broad as the primary or underlying policy(ies) and shall apply both to the CONTRACTOR’s general liability and to his automobile liability insurance.

2.1.7. Railroad Protective Liability

Where such an exposure exists, the CONTRACTOR will provide coverage in the use of each railroad company having jurisdiction over rights-of-way across which work under the Contract is to be performed.
