On November 18, 1994, a hearing was held pursuant to AS 21.06.180-230 to receive testimony regarding insurance coverage which insureds are generally unable to secure from admitted insurers for consideration by the director for inclusion on the surplus lines placement list. Other written and oral testimony was also received in accord with the hearing notice.

Producing brokers are reminded that, under AS 21.34.020(3) and 3 AAC 25.030, they must use due diligence to determine whether the insurance is available from an admitted insurer. Due diligence will be presumed if the producing broker affirms that the coverage is unavailable and the unavailability is documented by the affirmation that the coverage is on this list. Nothing herein shall preclude the producing broker from applying for an exception under AS 21.34.020(4).

This order replaces Order R93-09, issued November 1, 1993, and subsequent amendments.
