CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL
WAIVER OF INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
There will be times when it will be necessary, or in the best interest of the County, to deviate from the
standard insurance requirements specified within this manual. 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.
