B. Limits of Liability
$1,000,000 Each occurrence as respects Bodily Injury Liability or Property Damage Liability, or both combined.
.4 Owner's and Architect's Protective Liability Incurrence:
The Contractor will furnish and maintain during the entire period of construction an Owner's Protective Liability Policy written in the name of the owner, architect, and architect's consultants, with the following limits of liability:
Limits of Liability: $1,000,000 Each occurrence as respects Bodily Injury Liability or
Property Damage Liability, or both combined. $1,000,000 General Aggregate .5 Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance: Limits of Liability $1,000,000 Each occurrence $1,000,000 Aggregate 16.1.3 Certificates of Insurance for the above coverage and the Owner's Protective Policy shall be
submitted to the Architect for transmittal to the Owner for his approval prior to the start of construction. The Contractor shall certify to the Owner that he has obtained or will obtain similar certificates of insurance from each of his Subcontractors before their work commences. Each Subcontractor must be covered by insurance of the same character and in the same amounts as the Contractor unless the Contractor and the Owner agree that a reduced coverage is adequate. Each subcontractor's insurance shall cover the Owner, Architect, their agents and employees. The Contractor shall submit a statement with each monthly affidavit stating that he has obtained certificates of insurance, or other satisfactory evidence, that all required insurance is in force for each of the Subcontractors listed on his affidavit. If the "additional insured" have other insurance which is applicable to the loss, it shall be on an excess or contingent basis. The amount of the company's liability under this policy shall not be reduced by the existence of such other insurance Contractor certificates shall be in duplicate on standard Acord forms.
16.1.3.1 Certificate of insurance shall contain a statement therein or a rider attached thereto
incorporating the indemnity clause stated in Paragraph 3.18 (Indemnification) and Subparagraphs 3.18.1, 3.18.1.1, 3.18.2 and 3.18.3 of the General Conditions, and including the changes and addition made in those subparagraphs within these Supplemental General Conditions.
16.1.3.2 These Certificates and the insurance policies required by this Paragraph 16.1 shall contain a
provision that coverage afforded under the policies will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least thirty (30) days prior written notice has been given to the Owner and Architect. If any of the foregoing insurance coverage is required to remain in force after final payment and are reasonably available, an additional certificate evidencing continuation of such coverage
0777 1A- 4
December 11, 2007
shall be submitted with the final Application for Payment as required by Subparagraph 9.10.2. Information concerning reduction of coverage shall be furnished by the Contractor with reasonable promptness in accordance with the Contractor's information and belief.
06.1.3.3 The obligations of the Contractor under the provisions of this article shall not extend to the
liability of the Architect, his agents or employees arising out of (1) the preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, change orders, designs, or specifications, or (2) the giving of or the failure to give directions or instructions by the Architect, his agents or employees to the extent that such giving or failure to give is the cause of the injury or damage.
16.2 OWNER'S LIABILITY INSURANCE 16.2.1 The Owner shall be responsible for purchasing and maintaining the Owner's usual liability
insurance. Optionally, the Owner may purchase and maintain other insurance for self-protection against claims, which may arise from operations under the Contract. The Contractor shall not be responsible for purchasing and maintaining this optional Owner's liability insurance unless specifically required by the Contract Documents.
16.3 PROPERTY INSURANCE 16.3.1 Unless otherwise provided, the Owner shall purchase and maintain, in a company or
companies lawfully authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Project is located, property insurance in the amount of the initial Contract Sum as well as subsequent modifications thereto for the entire Work at the site on a replacement cost basis without voluntary deductibles. Such property insurance shall be maintained, unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents or otherwise agreed in writing by all persons and entities who are beneficiaries of such insurance, until final payment has been made and provided in Paragraph 9.10 or until no person or entity other than the Owner has an insurable interest in the property required by this Paragraph 16.3 to be covered, whichever is earlier. This insurance shall include interests of the Owner, Architect, the Contractor, Subcontractors and the Sub-subcontractors in the Work.
Property Insurance provided by Owners shall not cover any tools, apparatus, machinery, scaffolding, hoists, forms, staging, shoring and other similar items commonly referred to as construction equipment, which may be on the site and the capital value of which is not included in the Work. The Contractor shall make his own arrangements for any insurance he may require on such construction equipment.
16.3.1.2 If the Owner does not intend to purchase such property insurance required by the Contract and
with all of the coverage in the amount described above, the Owner shall so inform the Contractor in writing prior to commencement of the Work. The Contractor may then affect insurance, which will protect the interests of the Contractor, Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors in the Work, and by appropriate Change Order, the cost thereof shall be charged to the Owner. If the contractor is damaged by the failure or neglect of the Owner to purchase or maintain insurance as described above, without so notifying the Contractor then the Owner shall bear all reasonable cost properly attributably thereto.
16.3.1.3 If the property insurance required minimum deductibles and such deductibles are identified in
the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall pay costs not covered because of such deductibles. If the Owner or insurer increases the required minimum deductibles above the amounts so identified or if the Owner elects to purchase this insurance with voluntary deductible amounts, the Owner shall be responsible for payment of the additional costs not covered because of such increased or voluntary deductibles. If deductibles are not identified to the Contract Documents, the Owner shall pay costs not covered because of deductibles. The property insurance for the Work requires a minimum deductible of: $5,000 per claim.
