Is this always probability covered by an insurance underwriter or do you have to state specifically that you want that type of insurance in your policy?

I'm not aware of a plan that would add a specific peril that's only relevant to the particular locality. You may wish to discuss the issue with your agent to know better. ~Jeremy	JeremyHolter Senior member Joined: 06 Jun 2007 Posts: 1194 210.30 Dollars($)

You may have to check with the policy document to know whether its cover or excluded in your plan.	simon Senior member Joined: 28 Sep 2005 Posts: 550 93.55 Dollars($)
