Such insurance may be in the form of a separate insurance policy or an endorsement to a current insurance policy.

(2) "Termination," as used in the forms required under this section, means only those changes that would result in a gap in coverage as where the insured has not obtained required coverage or has obtained required coverage with a different retroactive date than the retroactive date of the original policy.

(3) Each insurance policy shall be issued by an insurer or a risk retention group that is licensed to transact the business of insurance or eligible to provide insurance as an excess or surplus lines insurer in one or more states.

(4) Each insurance policy shall be amended by an endorsement worded as specified in 40 CFR 280.97(b) (1), or evidenced by a certificate of insurance worded as specified in 40 CFR 280.97(b) (2), except for the following:

(a) The instructions in brackets in the endorsement or certificate shall be replaced by the relevant information and the brackets deleted.

(b) If financial responsibility for aboveground tanks within the scope of this subchapter is demonstrated using this method, all of the following changes shall be made:
1. Reference in the endorsement or certificate to underground tanks shall be amended to refer to aboveground tanks.

2. Certification that wording is identical to the wording required in 40 CFR 280.97(b) (1) or (2) shall be deleted.
