The general aggregate limit shall be endorsed on a per project basis.

(1) General Aggregate Limit $2,000,000

(2) Products - Completed Operation Aggregate Limit $2,000,000

(3) Each Occurrence Limit $1,000,000

The coverage shall provide by an endorsement in the appropriate manner and form, the Department, to its officers, agents and employees shall be named as additional insureds with respect to the policies and any umbrella excess liability coverage for occurrences arising in whole or in part out of the work and operations performed. The Department may accept a separate owner's protective liability policy in lieu of the Department, it's officers, and employees being insured on the Contractor's policy.

(c) Owners and Contractor’s Protective (OCP) Liability.

The Contractor shall provide an OCP policy covering the property owner(s) of the site where the work is to be performed. In the case of multiple owners, all the landowners may be listed as additional insurers on the same policy.

This project will require OCP Policy coverage for _1_ property owners.

If the Contractor chooses to put the Department on an OCP (in lieu of placing the Department as an additional insured on the Commercial General Liability - see (b) above), then the Department should be listed as the insured, with all landowners listed as additional insured(s). The amounts of insurance shall be as follows:

BODILY INJURY LIABILITY PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY

Each Occurrence Each Occurrence Aggregate $1,000,000 $500,000 $1,000,000 or

COMBINED SINGLE LIMIT $1,000,000

The required OCP policy shall contain the following endorsement:

"Each named insured shall be provided full coverage under this policy without regard to the fact that such named insured is not in contractual privity with the Contractor. It is understood that the construction operations are performed for and on behalf of the Department, with the consent of the property owner(s)-insured(s). Coverage under this policy with respect to liability arising out of operations shall not be denied to any named-insured because of his passive relationship to the Contractor".

When any named insured is a corporation, insurance coverage under the OCP policy shall extend to the Corporation, its officers, agents, and employees.

(d) Commercial Automobile Liability.

The policy shall cover owned, non-owned and hired vehicles.

BODILY INJURY & PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY

All insurance shall remain in force during the period covering occurrences happening on or after the effective date and remaining in effect during performance of the work and at all times thereafter when the Contractor may be correcting, removing or replacing defective work until notification of the date of final inspection. Termination or refusal to renew shall not be made without 30 days prior written notice to the Department by the insured(s) and the policies shall be endorsed so as to remove any language restricting or limiting liability concerning this obligation.

Certified copies of the original policies or certificate(s) of insurance by the insurer(s) issuing the policies and endorsements setting forth the coverage, limits and endorsements shall be filed with the Department before the Department will execute the contract. A certificate of insurance shall include a statement that, "the coverage and limits conform to the minimums required by Article

All costs for insurance as specified herein will be considered as included in the cost of the contract. The Contractor shall, at its own expense and risk of delay, cease operations if the insurance required is terminated or reduced below the required amounts of coverage. Coverage in the minimum amounts set forth herein shall not be construed to relieve the Contractor from its obligation to indemnify in excess of the coverage in accordance with the contract.
