[Ord. 137, 7/5/2005]
Each applicant, upon the receipt of a permit, shall provide
the Township with an acceptable certificate of insurance indicating
that he is insured against claims for damages for personal injury
as well as against claims for property damages which may arise from
or out of the performance of the work, whether such performance be
by himself, his subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed
by him. Such insurance shall cover collapse, explosive hazards and
underground work by equipment on the street, and shall include protection
against liability arising from completed operations. The amount of
the insurance shall be prescribed by the Township Roadmaster in accordance
with the nature of the risk involved; provided, however, it shall
provide for a minimum of comprehensive bodily injury liability insurance
including coverage on a personal injury basis and comprehensive property
damage liability insurance not less than $2,000,000 combined single
limit. Public utility companies and authorities may be relieved of
the obligation of submitting such a certificate if they submit satisfactory
evidence that they are insured in accordance with the requirements
of this Part or have adequate provision for self-insurance. Public
utility companies may file an annual certificate of insurance in lieu
of individual certificates for each permit. The Township shall be
added as an additional insured/loss payee on any insurance policy
or policies required by this section.
