RESOLUTION NO. 22- _____ N.C.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO
APPROVING AND AWARDING AN ON-CALL CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT TO 4LEAF, INC. FOR WATER ENGINEERING CONSULTING
SERVICES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME WHEREAS, the Water Department recently updated its FY2021-2022 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to incorporate a portion of $52 million in proceeds received in February 2021 from a Bond Issuance and is now embarking on an aggressive program to update its infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, the City of Vallejo Water Department Engineering division current staffing level is not sufficient to support the design and implementation of the current CIP, requiring outside consultants to provide technical expertise on a range of disciplines necessary to complete bondfunded CIP projects; and WHEREAS, the City of Vallejo Water Department Engineering Division requires a broad spectrum of consultant expertise, experience, and support to implement the purpose and required timeframe for implementation of the bond funded projects on top of their existing engineering duties in the Department; and
WHEREAS, on July 12th, 2021, the City of Vallejo Water Department published the Request for Qualification for On-Call Water Engineering Consulting Services requesting qualifications that could cover twelve water engineering specific disciplines in order to create a readily-available pre-screened group of qualified consultants to be deployed as-needed to a wide range of technical specialties necessary to successfully complete the bond-funded CIP projects in a timely and high quality manner; and
WHEREAS, twenty-three proposals were received from the following consulting firms: 4Leaf, Balance Hydrologics, BKF Engineers, Carollo Engineers, Consolidated CM, Dewbery, EKI, FreyerLaureta, GEI Consultants, GHD, HDR, HydroScience, Interwest, Lee and Ro, NCE, NexGen, Park Engineering, Sandis, Schaaf & Wheeler, Sequoia, West Yost, WRA and Zanjero/Tully & Young.
WHEREAS, the City of Vallejo Water Department created a selection panel consisting of licensed engineers and qualified project management professionals. Each proposal was given a score based on the demonstrated understanding of the services requested, the firm’s relevant experience and familiarity with issues applicable to the project, the qualifications of the firm and assigned individuals, the acceptability and scope of service capabilities, and the fee structure; and
WHEREAS, seventeen consultants were selected to provide a minimum of two consultants per discipline to cover all twelve disciplines with the intent to obtain expertise within the industry and competitive pricing within each discipline; and
WHEREAS, 4LEAF, Inc. is included in this resolution to provide Construction Management; and WHEREAS, two types of contracts can be awarded, a Design Professional Services contract and a Consultant and Professional Services Agreement; and WHEREAS, each contract awarded is not to exceed $500,000 annually for four years and includes the option to extend for up to one year; and
WHEREAS, a Consultant and Professional Services Contract is included in this resolution; and WHEREAS, the City’s Water Department has sufficient money in its Water Enterprise Funds to pay for this work.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Council hereby approves contracts between the City of Vallejo and 4LEAF, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $500,000 per year for four years with an option to extend for an additional year at $500,000, to be paid from the Water Department’s Water Enterprise Funds and authorizes the City Manager to execute same.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Vallejo at a regular meeting held on March 22, 2022, with the following vote:
AYES:
NOES:

______________________________________
ROBERT MCCONNELL, MAYOR
ATTEST:
______________________________________
DAWN G. ABRAHAMSON, CITY CLERK
CONSENT CALENDAR 8.R.
DATE: March 22, 2022
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Beth Schoenberger, Acting Water Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ON-CALL CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BALANCE HYDROLOGICS, INC. FOR WATER
ENGINEERING CONSULTING SERVICES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME IN A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $2 MILLION AND LIMITED TO $500,000 PER YEAR FOR FOUR YEARS AS PART OF THE CITY'S PROGRAM FOR
UPGRADING AND REPLACING OUTDATED CITY WATER INFRASTRUCTURE
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution approving an on-call consultant and professional services agreement with Balance Hydologics, Inc. for water engineering consulting services and authorizing the City Manager to execute same in a total amount not-to-exceed $2 million and limited to $500,000 per year for four years as part of the City's program for upgrading and replacing outdated City water infrastructure.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The ability to deploy consultants on an on-call, as-needed basis allows the Water Department to best manage the anticipated workload to deliver capital projects within the allotted time frame to address aging infrastructure and assure drinking water system reliability for customers.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Water Department anticipates using contract services of consultant firms to perform work on various water Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and water Engineering-related projects. This work will be variable in scope and may be short-term and/or long-term, depending upon the focus. As a practice, many cities enter into on-call agreements with consultant firms to assign work as needed. In addition, many cities choose to enter into on-call agreements with multiple firms in order to ensure that a consultant's workload issues will not get in the way of a city's critical-path needs, allow staff to best fit the expertise of a particular firm with specific needs of an assignment, and obtain competitive pricing.
Water’s Engineering staff are responsible for reviewing planning and development applications, assisting other divisions within the Water Department with maintenance requests, water conservation and resources planning management, inter-agency coordination, implementing grant programs and strategic planning, responding to customer service requests, and delivering the design and construction of Water’s CIP. When Vallejo's drinking water functions were transitioned into a standalone department, the need to tackle the aging infrastructure was identified as a top priority. A long-term financial plan was prepared, a new rate plan was unanimously approved by Council after an 18-month process of robust community engagement, with direction from the City Council Ad Hoc Water Rate Committee. The financial plan included a projected $27M bond issuance. The Bond Issuance was proposed due to the extensive maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement needs of the City’s aging drinking water infrastructure. In December 2020, after delays resulting from the pandemic, the City Council approved the Bond Issuance, wherein Water staff had identified a total of fifty-five (55) projects.
Thirty-five (35) of those projects are identified in the published Vallejo FY 2020-21 CIP Budget book. While at the time the Bond proposal anticipated an issuance of $27M, due to record-setting low interest rates at the Date: March 22, 2022

time of the bond sale (January 2021), the annual projected debt service funded an issuance of $52M, an addition of $25M dollars earmarked for investment in the drinking water system infrastructure for the long term benefit of system reliability for customers. Specialized design and consultant work is a prerequisite to developing the scope and framework for the resulting construction projects. The Bond Issuance requires a minimum of 80% of bond funds be spent within three (3) years. Current staffing levels in Water Engineering are not sufficient to support this requirement while managing the existing workload.
In order to meet the current and anticipated needs for the Water Department’s Capital Improvement Projects which will be funded through the Bond Issuance, as well as emerging critical maintenance needs, City staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) asking that qualified consultants submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) demonstrating their ability to perform the following services as related specifically to the Water industry in the following major categories:
• Program/Project Management
• Pipeline Design
• Pump Station and Tank Studies, Assessments, and Design • Water Treatment Plant Studies, Assessments, and Design • Earthen Dams and Associated Geotechnical and Structural Engineering • Hydrology Evaluations
• Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling
• Electrical Engineering
• Water Resources Management
• Environmental Permitting, CEQA and Restoration
• Construction Management
• Telecommunication Services
The RFQ for On-Call Water Engineering Consulting was released on July 12, 2021. Twenty-three proposals were submitted by the due date of August 9, 2021. Staff reviewed the SOQs and ranked each firm by scoring them based on the following criteria as listed in the RFQ:
• Firm’s relevant experience and familiarity with issues applicable to the City’s needs. (50%) • Qualifications of the firm and assigned individuals. (25%) • Fee structure and cost-effectiveness of the consultants. (15%) • Reference checks. (10%)
Due to the extensive responsibilities of the Water Department Engineering team and bond obligations, the firms represented by each of the contracts included with this staff report were selected to best meet those needs. These firms possess various requested areas of expertise as set forth in each contract, have recent experience handling on-call services for municipalities, are available to commence services immediately, and have resources and staffing to complete assignments on a timely basis.
Each of the firms have been notified that they are being recommended for agreements in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term of the contract. The specific scope of services, Date: March 22, 2022

schedule, and cost of work will be defined on a statement of work basis. The statement of work will be signed by the Water Director and the consulting firm prior to beginning work.
Balance Hydrologics, Inc. proposed in the areas of Hydrology Evaluations and will be awarded a Consultant and Professional Agreement. A Design Professional Agreement is an agreement for consultants to provide the design and specifications required for a capital project. A Consultant and Professional Agreement covers a similar range of consulting services, such as guidance, plan review, feasibility studies, and planning studies.
However, it does not include design criteria.
Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements with Balance Hydrologics , Inc. This action will authorize the City Manager to execute agreements that will establish a pool of professional consultants under contract with the City through June 30, 2026, with an option to extend agreements for one year.
FISCAL IMPACT
This proposed action will not have any direct impact on the General Fund. Funds to pay each firm for asneeded consultant services in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term contract will come from existing (and future) capital improvement project budgets within the Water Enterprise Fund based on allocated bond funding. The contracts also include a potential one-year extension in a not-toexceed amount of $500,000.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.

c. Method Of Sharing
If all of the other insurance permits contribution
by equal shares, we will follow this method also.
Under this approach each insurer contributes
equal amounts until it has paid its applicable
limit of insurance or none of the loss remains,
whichever comes first.
If any of the other insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will contribute
by limits. Under this methoo, each insurer's
share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit
of insurance to the total applicable limits of
insurance of all insurers.
d. Primary And Non-Contributory Insurance If
Required By Written Contract
If you specifically agree in a written contract or
agreement that the insurance afforded to an
insured under this Coverage Part must apply on
a primary basis, or a primary and noncontributory basis. this insurance is primary to other insurance that is available to such insured
which covers such insured as a named insured,
and we will not share with that other insurance,
provided that:
(1) The "bodily injury'' or "property damage" for
which coverage is sought occurs; and
(2) The "personal and advertising injury" for
which coverage is sought is caused by an
offense that is committed;
subsequent to the signing of that contract or
agreement by you.
5. Premium Audit
a. We will compute all premiums for this Coverage
Part in accordance with our rules and rates.
b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as
advance premium is a deposit premium only. At
the close of each audit perioo we will compute
the earned premium for that period and send
notice to the first Named Insured. The due date
for audit and retrospective premiums is the date
shown as the due date on the bill. If the sum of
the advance and audit premiums paid for the
policy period is greater than the earned
premium, we will return the excess to the first
Named Insured.
c. The first Named Insured must keep records of
the information we need for premium
computation, and send us copies at such times
as we may request.
6. Representations
By accepting this policy, you agree:
a. The statements in the Declarations are
accurate and complete;

premium or to exercise our rights of cancellation or
nonrenewal in accordance with applicable insurance
laws or regulations.
7. Separation Of Insureds
Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance, and
any rights or duties specifically assigned in this
Coverage Part to the first Named Insured, this
insurance applies:
a. As if each Named Insured were the only
Named Insured; and
b. Separately to each insured against whom claim
is made or "suit" is brought.
8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others
To Us
If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part,
those rights are transferred to us. The insured must
do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request,
the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights
to us and help us enforce them.
9. When We Do Not Renew
If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we will
mail or deliver to the first Named Insured shown in
the Declarations written notice of the nonrenewal
not less than 30 days before the expiration date.
If notice is mailed, proof of mailing will be sufficient proof of notice.

CONSENT CALENDAR 8.S.
DATE: March 22, 2022
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Beth Schoenberger, Acting Water Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ON-CALL CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL
SERVICES AGREEMENT AND A DESIGN PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH BKF ENGINEERS FOR WATER ENGINEERING SERVICES AND DESIGN
SERVICES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME IN A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $2 MILLION AND LIMITED TO $500,000 PER YEAR FOR FOUR YEARS AS PART OF THE CITY’S PROGRAM FOR UPGRADING AND
REPLACING OUTDATED CITY WATER INFRASTRUCTURE
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution approving an on-call Consultant and Professional Services Agreement and a Design Professional Services Agreement with BKF Engineers for water engineering services and design services and authorizing the City Manager to execute same in a total amount not-to-exceed $2 million for each contract and limited to $500,000 per year for four years as part of the City’s program for upgrading and replacing outdated City water infrastructure.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The ability to deploy consultants on an on-call, as-needed basis allows the Water Department to best manage the anticipated workload to deliver capital projects within the allotted time frame to address aging infrastructure and assure drinking water system reliability for customers.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Water Department anticipates using contract services of consultant firms to perform work on various water Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and water Engineering-related projects. This work will be variable in scope and may be short-term and/or long-term, depending upon the focus. As a practice, many cities enter into on-call agreements with consultant firms to assign work as needed. In addition, many cities choose to enter into on-call agreements with multiple firms in order to ensure that a consultant's workload issues will not get in the way of a city's critical-path needs, allow staff to best fit the expertise of a particular firm with specific needs of an assignment, and obtain competitive pricing.
Water’s Engineering staff are responsible for reviewing planning and development applications, assisting other divisions within the Water Department with maintenance requests, water conservation and resources planning management, inter-agency coordination, implementing grant programs and strategic planning, responding to customer service requests, and delivering the design and construction of Water’s CIP. When Vallejo's drinking water functions were transitioned into a standalone department, the need to tackle the aging infrastructure was identified as a top priority. A long-term financial plan was prepared, a new rate plan was unanimously approved by Council after an 18-month process of robust community engagement, with direction from the City Council Ad Hoc Water Rate Committee. The financial plan included a projected $27M bond issuance. The Bond Issuance was proposed due to the extensive maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement needs of the City’s aging drinking water infrastructure. In December 2020, after delays resulting from the pandemic, the City Council approved the Bond Issuance, wherein Water staff had identified Date: March 22, 2022

a total of fifty-five (55) projects.
Thirty-five (35) of those projects are identified in the published Vallejo FY 2020-21 CIP Budget book. While at the time the Bond proposal anticipated an issuance of $27M, due to record-setting low interest rates at the time of the bond sale (January 2021), the annual projected debt service funded an issuance of $52M, an addition of $25M dollars earmarked for investment in the drinking water system infrastructure for the long term benefit of system reliability for customers. Specialized design and consultant work is a prerequisite to developing the scope and framework for the resulting construction projects. The Bond Issuance requires a minimum of 80% of bond funds be spent within three (3) years. Current staffing levels in Water Engineering are not sufficient to support this requirement while managing the existing workload.
In order to meet the current and anticipated needs for the Water Department’s Capital Improvement Projects which will be funded through the Bond Issuance, as well as emerging critical maintenance needs, City staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) asking that qualified consultants submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) demonstrating their ability to perform the following services as related specifically to the Water industry in the following major categories:
Program/Project Management
Pipeline Design
Pump Station and Tank Studies, Assessments, and Design Water Treatment Plant Studies, Assessments, and Design Earthen Dams and Associated Geotechnical and Structural Engineering Hydrology Evaluations
Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling
Electrical Engineering
Water Resources Management
Environmental Permitting, CEQA and Restoration
Construction Management
Telecommunication Services
The RFQ for On-Call Water Engineering Consulting was released on July 12, 2021. Twentythree proposals were submitted by the due date of August 9, 2021. Staff reviewed the SOQs and ranked each firm by scoring them based on the following criteria as listed in the RFQ:
Firm’s relevant experience and familiarity with issues applicable to the City’s needs. (50%) Qualifications of the firm and assigned individuals. (25%) Fee structure and cost-effectiveness of the consultants. (15%) Reference checks. (10%)

AND REPLACING OUTDATED CITY WATER INFRASTRUCTURE
Due to the extensive responsibilities of the Water Department Engineering team and bond obligations, the firms represented by each of the contracts included with this staff report were selected to best meet those needs. These firms possess various requested areas of expertise as set forth in each contract, have recent experience handling on-call services for municipalities, are available to commence services immediately, and have resources and staffing to complete assignments on a timely basis.
Each of the firms have been notified that they are being recommended for agreements in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term of the contract. The specific scope of services, schedule, and cost of work will be defined on a statement of work basis. The statement of work will be signed by the Water Director and the consulting firm prior to beginning work.
BKF Engineers proposed in the areas of Hydrology Evaluations and Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling, Pipeline Design and Pump Station, Tank Studies, Assessments & Design and will be awarded both a Design Professional Agreement and a Consultant and Professional Agreement. A Design Professional Agreement is an agreement for consultants to provide the design and specifications required for a capital project. A Consultant and Professional Agreement covers a similar range of consulting services, such as guidance, plan review, feasibility studies, and planning studies. However, it does not include design criteria.
Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements with BKF Engineers. This action will authorize the City Manager to execute agreements that will establish a pool of professional consultants under contract with the City through June 30, 2026, with an option to extend agreements for one year.
FISCAL IMPACT
This proposed action will not have any direct impact on the General Fund. Funds to pay each firm for asneeded consultant services in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term contract will come from existing (and future) capital improvement project budgets within the Water Enterprise Fund based on allocated bond funding. The contracts also include a potential one-year extension in a not-toexceed amount of $500,000.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.

16. Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on March 8, 2022, and shall continue in full force and effect until June 30, 2026.
City shall, at its discretion, have the right to extend the term of this Agreement, in intervals of one year, by written notice to Consultant. The total duration of this Consultant and Professional Services Agreement (Revised 01.2019) Page 5 of 11 Agreement, including the exercise of any options under this section, shall not exceed June 30, 2027.
If the term of this Agreement extends into fiscal years subsequent to that in which it is approved, such continuation of the Agreement is contingent on the appropriation of funds for such purpose by the City Council of the City of Vallejo.
If funds to effect such continued payment are not appropriated, Consultant agrees to terminate any services supplied to City of Vallejo under this Agreement, and relieve City of any further obligation therefore.
17. Termination or Abandonment by City. The City has the right, at any time and in its sole discretion, to immediately terminate or abandon any portion or all of the services to be provided under this Agreement by giving notice to Consultant.
Upon receipt of a notice of termination, Consultant shall perform no further work except as specified in the notice. Before the date of termination, Consultant shall deliver to City all City records and documents, all work product, whether completed or not, as of the date of termination and not otherwise previously delivered.
The City shall pay Consultant for services performed in accordance with this Agreement before the date of termination. If this contract provides for payment of a lump sum for all services or by task and termination occurs before completion of the work or any defined task which according to the performance schedule was commenced before the notice of termination, the fee for services performed shall be based on an amount mutually agreed to by City and Consultant for the portion of work completed in conformance with this Agreement before the date of termination. In addition, the City will reimburse Consultant for authorized expenses incurred and not previously reimbursed.

Consultant agrees that all copyrights which arise from creation of the work under this Agreement shall be vested in the City and waives and relinquishes all claims to copyright or other intellectual property rights in favor of the City. City acknowledges that its use of the work product is limited to the purposes contemplated by the scope of work and that the Consultant makes no representation of the suitability of the work product for use in or application to circumstances not contemplated by the scope of work.
Documents submitted to the City in electronic format shall be formatted according to specifications provided by the City, or if not otherwise specified, in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint or other Microsoft Office Suite (2002) format as Consultant and Professional Services Agreement (Revised 01.2019) Page 6 of 11 appropriate for the particular work product or, if directed by the City Representative in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
19. Cooperation by City. City shall, to the extent reasonable and practicable, assist and cooperate with Consultant in the performance of Consultant’s services hereunder.
20. Assignment and Subcontracting. Consultant shall not subcontract, assign or transfer voluntarily or involuntarily any of its rights, duties or obligation under this Agreement without the express written consent of the City Manager or his or her designee in each instance.

If subcontracting of work is permitted, Consultant shall pay its subcontractor within ten (10) days of receipt of payment by City for work performed by a subcontractor and billed by the Consultant. Use of the term subcontractor in any other provision of this contract shall not be construed to imply authorization for Consultant to use subcontractors for performance of any service under this Agreement.
The City is an intended beneficiary of any work performed by Consultant’s subcontractor for purposes of establishing a duty of care between the subcontractor and City.
Any subcontractor or assignee consented to by City shall be bound by all terms and conditions of this agreement and the same shall be incorporated into and made a part of any assignment or subcontractor agreement.
21. Successors and Assigns. All terms, conditions, and provisions of this Agreement shall apply to and bind the respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns of the parties. Nothing in this section is intended to affect the limitation on assignment.

Many risks potentially affect ENGEO by virtue of entering into this agreement to perform services on behalf of client. A principal risk is the potential for human error by ENGEO. For client to obtain the benefit of a fee that includes a nominal allowance for dealing with our liability, client agree to limit ENGEO’s liability to Client and all other parties for claims arising out of our performance of the services described in the agreement. The aggregate liability will not exceed $50,000 (or ENGEO’s fee, whichever is greater, but not more than $1,000,000) for professional acts, errors, or omissions, including attorney’s fees and costs that may be awarded to the prevailing party and client agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ENGEO from and against all liabilities in excess of the monetary limit established above. 3 / FEE SCHEDULE

c. Method Of Sharing
If all of the other insurance permits contribution
by equal shares, we will follow this method also.
Under this approach each insurer contributes
equal amounts until it has paid its applicable
limit of insurance or none of the loss remains,
whichever comes first.
If any of the other insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will contribute
by limits. Under this methoo, each insurer's
share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit
of insurance to the total applicable limits of
insurance of all insurers.
d. Primary And Non-Contributory Insurance If
Required By Written Contract
If you specifically agree in a written contract or
agreement that the insurance afforded to an
insured under this Coverage Part must apply on
a primary basis, or a primary and noncontributory basis. this insurance is primary to other insurance that is available to such insured
which covers such insured as a named insured,
and we will not share with that other insurance,
provided that:
(1) The "bodily injury'' or "property damage" for
which coverage is sought occurs; and
(2) The "personal and advertising injury" for
which coverage is sought is caused by an
offense that is committed;
subsequent to the signing of that contract or
agreement by you.
5. Premium Audit
a. We will compute all premiums for this Coverage
Part in accordance with our rules and rates.
b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as
advance premium is a deposit premium only. At
the close of each audit perioo we will compute
the earned premium for that period and send
notice to the first Named Insured. The due date
for audit and retrospective premiums is the date
shown as the due date on the bill. If the sum of
the advance and audit premiums paid for the
policy period is greater than the earned
premium, we will return the excess to the first
Named Insured.
c. The first Named Insured must keep records of
the information we need for premium
computation, and send us copies at such times
as we may request.
6. Representations
By accepting this policy, you agree:
a. The statements in the Declarations are
accurate and complete;
b. Those statements are based upon
representations you made to us; and
c. We have issued this policy in reliance upon
your representations.
The unintentional omission of, or unintentional error
in, any information provided by you which we relied
upon in issuing this policy will not prejudice your
rights under this insurance. However, this provision
does not affect our right to collect additional
premium or to exercise our rights of cancellation or
nonrenewal in accordance with applicable insurance
laws or regulations.
7. Separation Of Insureds
Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance, and
any rights or duties specifically assigned in this
Coverage Part to the first Named Insured, this
insurance applies:
a. As if each Named Insured were the only
Named Insured; and
b. Separately to each insured against whom claim
is made or "suit" is brought.
8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others
To Us
If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part,
those rights are transferred to us. The insured must
do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request,
the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights
to us and help us enforce them.
9. When We Do Not Renew
If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we will
mail or deliver to the first Named Insured shown in
the Declarations written notice of the nonrenewal
not less than 30 days before the expiration date.
If notice is mailed, proof of mailing will be sufficient proof of notice.
