Insurance Requirements for Transit Operations Center - Phase 1 and Phase 2

This document outlines the insurance requirements for the City of Pasadena's Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) contract for the Transit Operations Maintenance Facility project, divided into Phase 1 (Preconstruction/Design Assist) and Phase 2 (Demolition and Construction). For Phase 1, the contractor must maintain Commercial General Liability insurance with a minimum limit of $1,000,000 per occurrence on an ISO Form CG 00 01 occurrence basis; Automobile Liability coverage of $1,000,000 per accident under ISO Form CA 0001 Code 1; Workers' Compensation insurance with statutory limits and Employer's Liability coverage of $1,000,000 per accident; and Professional Liability insurance of $2,000,000 per occurrence or claim with a $2,000,000 annual aggregate. Phase 2 substantially increases these requirements to $30,000,000 per occurrence for Commercial General Liability (dedicated to the project), $5,000,000 per accident for Automobile Liability, the same Workers' Compensation and Professional Liability minimums, plus additional Builder's Risk (Course of Construction) insurance equal to completed project value with an earthquake sublimit not exceeding five percent of completed value, and Contractors' Pollution Legal Liability and/or Asbestos Legal Liability coverage of $2,000,000 per occurrence or claim with $4,000,000 annual aggregate. All insurance policies must be maintained for the duration of the contract and for five years thereafter, with coverage costs borne entirely by the contractor. Insurance must be placed with California-authorized insurers maintaining an A.M. Best rating of no less than A:VII.

The City of Pasadena must be named as an additional insured on all contractor liability policies using ISO Forms CG 20 10 (ongoing operations) and CG 20 37 (completed operations) for general liability, with contractor insurance serving as primary and non-contributory coverage. All policies must include broad form contractual liability coverage, a severability of interests/cross-liability provision, waiver of subrogation endorsements, and cancellation/change notices requiring thirty days' written notice to the City (ten days for non-payment of premium). Self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City, which reserves the right to require lower retention amounts or proof of ability to pay losses within retention limits. Claims-made policies require retroactive dates prior to contract execution, extended reporting period coverage for five years post-completion if not renewed, and copies of claims reporting requirements submitted to the City for review. Contractors must require all subcontractors to maintain equivalent insurance meeting all stated requirements and ensure the City is named as an additional insured on subcontractor coverage using ISO Form CG 20 38 04 13. Original certificates of insurance and required amendatory endorsements must be submitted and approved before work commences; failure to maintain required insurance constitutes material breach and may result in contract termination, with the City authorized to obtain coverage at contractor expense and deduct premiums from amounts due.

Construction Contracts – Transit Operations Center Phase 1 - Preconstruction/Design Assist

3328710.1

Insurance Requirements

Transit Operations Center Preconstruction / Design Assist (Phase 1)

Construction Manager At Risk (“CMAR” or “Contractor”) shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract, and for five (5) years thereafter, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the work hereunder and the results of that work by Contractor, its agents, representatives, employees, or subcontractors. The cost of such insurance shall be borne by Contractor.

MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE

Coverage shall be at least as broad as:

1. Commercial General Liability (CGL): Insurance Services Office (ISO) Form CG 00 01 covering CGL on an “occurrence” basis, including products and completed operations, property damage, bodily injury and personal & advertising injury with limits no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. If a general aggregate limit applies, the general aggregate limit shall be twice the required occurrence limit. The policy shall include broad form contractual liability coverage.

2. Automobile Liability: ISO Form CA 0001 covering Code 1 (any auto), with limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.

3. Workers’ Compensation insurance as required by the State of California, with Statutory Limits, and Employer’s Liability Insurance with a limit of no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.

4. Professional Liability insurance with limit no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence or claim and $2,000,000 in the aggregate per policy period of one year.

Contractor should check with Contractor’s insurance advisors to verify compliance and determine if additional coverage or limits may be needed to adequately insure Contractor’s obligations under this contract. These are the minimum required and do not in any way represent or imply that such coverage is sufficient to adequately cover Contractor’s liability under this contract. These insurance requirements shall not in any way relieve Contractor of liability in excess of such coverage, nor shall it preclude City from taking such other actions as are available to it under any other provisions of this contract or law. These insurance requirements shall not in any way act to reduce coverage that is broader or includes higher limits than those required. If Contractor maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimums shown above, City requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits maintained by Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage required, which are applicable to any given loss, shall be available to City.

The insurance to be provided by Contractor under this contract shall not include any endorsement limiting coverage available to City that is otherwise required herein; and any policy or endorsement language that (i) negates coverage to City for City’s own negligence; (ii) limits the duty to defend City under the policy; (iii) provides coverage to City only if Contractor is negligent, or (iv) permits the recovery of defense costs from any additional insured. The insurance provided under this contract shall not contain any restrictions or limitations which are inconsistent with City’s rights under this contract.

Umbrella or Excess Insurance The Contractor may use Umbrella or Excess Policies to provide the liability limits as required in this contract. This form of insurance will be acceptable provided that all of the Primary and Umbrella or Excess Policies shall provide all of the insurance coverages herein required, including, but not limited to, primary and non-contributory, additional insured, Self-Insured Retentions (SIRs), indemnity, and defense requirements. The Umbrella or Excess policies shall be provided on a true “following form” or broader coverage basis, with coverage at least as broad as provided on the underlying Commercial General Liability and Auto Liability Insurance. No insurance policies maintained by the Additional Insureds, whether primary or excess, and which also apply to a loss covered hereunder, shall be called upon to contribute to a loss until the Contractor’s primary and excess liability policies are exhausted.

Self-Insured Retentions Self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City may require Contractor to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention.

Other Insurance Provisions The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:

Additional Insured Status The City of Pasadena, its City Council, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as (“Additional Insureds”) on Contractor’s liability policies with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of Contractor including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations and automobiles owned, leased, hired, or borrowed by or on behalf of Contractor. General liability additional insured coverage shall be provided in the form of an endorsement to Contractor’s insurance at least as broad as ISO Form CG 20 10 (ongoing operations) and CG 20 37 (completed operations).

Severability of Interests (Cross-Liability).

A severability of interest provision must apply for all the additional insureds, ensuring that Contractor’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom a claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability.

Primary Coverage For any claims related to this project, Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance coverage at least as broad as ISO CG 20 01 04 13 as respects City, its City Council, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its City Council, its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers shall be excess of Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it.

Notice of Cancellation/Change in Coverage Each insurance policy required above shall state that coverage shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, reduced in coverage or in limits, non-renewed, or materially changed except after thirty

(30) days’ prior written notice has been given to City, except that ten (10) days’ prior written notice shall apply in the event of cancellation for non-payment of premium. Prior written notice shall be sent to City pursuant to the Notices/Ship To provisions of this contact.

Claims Made Policies If any coverage required is written on a claims-made coverage form:

1. The retroactive date must be shown and must be before the execution date of the contract or the beginning of contract work.

2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work.

3. If the policy is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a retroactive date prior to the contract effective date, or start of work date, Contractor must purchase extended reporting period coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of contract work.

4. A copy of the claims reporting requirements must be submitted to City for review.

5. If the services involve lead-based paint or asbestos identification/remediation, the

Contractors Pollution Liability policy shall not contain lead-based paint or asbestos exclusions. If the services involve mold identification/remediation, the Contractors Pollution Liability policy shall not contain a mold exclusion, and the definition of Pollution shall include microbial matter, including mold.

Acceptability of Insurers Insurance is to be placed with insurers authorized to conduct business in the state of California with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII. The current A.M. Best rating for each insurer shall be noted on the Certificate(s) of Insurance.

Waiver of Subrogation Contractor hereby grants to City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of Contractor may acquire against City, its City Council, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers from Contractor by virtue of the payment of any loss. Contractor agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation but this provision applies regardless of whether or not City has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.

The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of City for all work performed by Contractor, its employees, agents, and subcontractors.

Certificate Holder Certificate Holder on each insurance certificate shall be addressed pursuant to the Notices/Ship To provisions of this contract.

Verification of Coverage Contractor shall furnish City with original certificates and all required amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause before work begins. A statement on an insurance certificate will not be accepted in lieu of the actual endorsements required herein. Each insurance certificate shall include project description, Request for Proposal number, and contract/purchase order number when issued.

All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Contractor’s obligation to provide them. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.

Subcontractors Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage, subcontractors shall provide coverage with a form at least as broad as CG 20 38 04 13.

Failure to Maintain Insurance Coverage If Contractor, for any reason, fails to maintain insurance coverage which is required pursuant to this contract, the same shall be deemed a material breach of contract. City, at its sole option, may terminate this contract and obtain damages from Contractor resulting from said breach.

Alternatively, City may purchase such coverage (but has no special obligation to do so), and without further notice to Contractor, the City may deduct from sums due to Contractor any premium costs advanced by City for such insurance.

Special Risks or Circumstances City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
