Recognizing this potential, and acting on the advice of the County Attorney, the Board of County Commissioners has granted authorization to Risk Management to waive and modify various insurance provisions. Specifically excluded from this authorization is the right to waive: · The County as being named as an Additional Insured-If a letter from the Insurance Company (not the Agent) is presented, stating that they are unable or unwilling to name the County as an Additional Insured, Risk Management has been granted the authority to waive this provision. and · The Indemnification and Hold Harmless provisions WaivinQ of insurance provisions could expose the County to economic loss. For this reason, every attempt should be made to obtain the standard insurance requirements. If a waiver or a modification is desired, a Request for Waiver of Insurance Requirements form should be completed and submitted for consideration with the proposal. After consideration by Risk Management and if approved, the form will be returned, to the County Attorney who will submit the Waiver with the other contract documents for execution by the Clerk of the Courts. Should Risk Management deny the Waiver Request, the other party may file an appeal with the County Administrator or the Board of County Commissioners, who retains the final decision- making authority.
