Commercial Property Revised Causes of Loss – Special Form

ISO has revised the Causes of Loss – Special Form CP 10 30 09 17 CP 10 30 09 17 to broaden coverage with respect to accidental discharge or leakage from water or sewer pipes that are part of a municipal water or sewer system. The broadening will now include language reference to the section of pipe that is connected to the water or sewer supply system; and such systems will no longer be limited to municipal systems.
