Guidelines for determining level of certificate of insurance required:

The above classifications should be considered guidelines, not rigid categories. After determining the number of people expected to attend and the type of facility use requested, take into consideration the type of event before deciding upon the level of insurance needed. For instance, an outdoor event expecting to attract 500 people would need Level III coverage; an indoor event expecting to attract 200 people might also need Level III coverage depending upon the types of activities planned. However, due to the possible liability, some usage requests cannot be approved (e.g., an outdoor carnival with rides, circus events, etc.).  Contact the facilities use manager (443-518-4047) if you have questions about what coverage is required.
