NAR Section 934
Section Charter Certificate
The National Association of Rocketry arranges for general liability insurance coverage.
1. For each insured member of the National Association of Rocketry, for liability from accidents arising from the operation, maintenance, construction, testing and use of any model rocket in accordance with the Official Model Rocket and High Power Safety Codes of the National Association of Rocketry.
2. For each Chartered Section of the National Association of Rocketry, for liability from accidents arising out of any official Section activities.
3. For each sanctioned event of the National Association of Rocketry, for liability from accidents arising out of the sanctioned event activities.
This coverage applies to claims for bodily injury and property damage, as may be imposed by law, caused by accidents arising out of the activities described, to the limits of liability of $5,000,000 for each such accident, and subject to the policy overall aggregate limit of $5,000,000 for all claims occurring during the policy period. Fire damage coverage is limited to $1,000,000 per occurrence.
The protection provided for bodily injury and property damage has a $5,000 deductible for each claimant. Members are personally responsible for payment of the first $1,000 of the deductible: the NAR pays the remainder of the deductible. If a member is responsible for more than one claim in any NAR policy period, they will be responsible for the entire amount of the NAR deductible.
For individual NAR members, this coverage is in excess of any other collectible liability insurance, such as homeowners or similar liability coverage. Also, coverage does not apply to claims arising from the use of aircraft, automobiles, or watercraft, which transport people as operators or passengers in conjunction with official Section and/or sanctioned event activities.
NOTE:
This summery is general in nature. The exact and specific details of liability protection and its exclusions are contained in a master insurance policy on file at NAR Headquarters.
As a requirement of coverage, any incident or claim must be reported promptly to NAR Headquaters.
Identical liability protection in the amount of $5,000,000 may also be provided to each sponsor, site owner, show organizer, or other person named on a separate Certificate of Insurance, for accidents arising out of sanctioned events or Chartered Section activities. Coverage is primary for the site owner, but is excess for other named third parties.
