EXHIBIT 4 — INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

Consultant shall acquire and maintain until completion of the Work the insurance coverage listed below, which constitutes primary coverage. Consultant shall not commence the Work until the District receives and approves Certificates of Insurance documenting required coverage. Consultant’s General Liability policy shall include Endorsement CG 20 10 04 13, or equivalent, naming the St. Johns River Water Management District (the “District”) as Additional Insured. All required policies shall include: (1) endorsement that waives any right of subrogation (Endorsement 24 04 05 09, or equivalent) against the District for any policy of insurance provided under this requirement or under any state or federal worker’s compensation or employer’s liability act; (2) endorsement to give the District no less than 30 days’ notice in the event of cancellation or material change. Certificates of Insurance must be accompanied by copies of the requested endorsements.

Approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Consultant is responsible for any deductible or self-insured retention. Insurance must be placed with insurers having an A.M. Best rating of A-V or greater. District receipt of insurance certificates providing less than the required coverage does not waive these insurance requirements.

If Contractor claims an exemption from workers’ compensation coverage, Contractor must provide a copy of the Certificate of Exemption from the Florida Division of Workers’ Compensation for all officers or members of an LLC claiming exemption who will be participating in the Work. In addition, Contractor must provide a completed District “Affidavit (Non- Construction)” for non-construction contracts. Contractor is solely responsible for compliance with any Federal workers’ compensation laws such as Jones Act and USL&H Act, including any benefits available to any workers performing work on this project.

Commercial General Liability Insurance on an “Occurrence Basis,” with limits of liability for each occurrence of not less than $1,000,000 for personal injury, bodily injury, and property damage, with an aggregate of $2,000,000. Coverage shall include: (1) contractual liability,

(2) products and completed operations, (3) independent contractors, and (4) property in the care, control, or custody of Contractor. Extensions shall be added, or exclusions deleted to provide the necessary coverage.
