Insurance Requirements
To ensure safe and secure environments the Risk Management Department’s Insurance Compliance Unit establishes, reviews, and provides guidance on the District's insurance requirements.
Depending on the event, location, or scope of work, the insurance requirements may be subject to change.
The insurance guidelines and requirements listed below cover common scenarios but may not include all possible situations. Some events may require additional coverage and higher limits.
The review timeline varies based on the event type, OEHS review, the completeness of your submission, and how promptly vendors address any questions or required changes.
