Does the EPA or state require tank owners to purchase other insurance if they are covered by the PRCF?
In most cases, supplemental insurance coverage is not required by EPA or the state. The PRCF has been approved the EPA as a full coverage program that meets the financial responsibility requirements for both corrective action and third-party liability coverage. However, full coverage is not provided under certain circumstances. For example, if a petroleum release was reported prior to April 1, 1990, the PRCF does not provide coverage for third-party liability. Contact the PRCF office for more information.
