Attachment 1 Contract 2006NM005 Regional Disaster Plan for Public and Private Organizations in King County, Washington meals, and transportation to and from job sites /housing sites (if necessary) for loaned personnel. The Subscribing Organizations' Emergency Contact Points or their designees shall develop planning details associated with being a Borrower or Lender under the terms of this Omnibus Agreement. Lender personnel providing Emergency Assistance shall be under the control of their regular leaders, but the organizational units will come under the operational control of the command structure of the Borrower. Lender shall not be liable for cessation or slowdown of work if Lender's employees decline or are reluctant to perform any assigned tasks if said employees judge such task to be unsafe. A request for loaned personnel to direct the activities of others during a particular response operation does not relieve the Borrower of any responsibility or create any liability on the part of the Lender for decisions and /or consequences of the response operation. Loaned personnel may refuse to direct the activities of others without creating any liability on the part of the Lender. Any valid licenses issued to Lender personnel by Lender or Lender's state, relating to the skills required for the emergency work, may be recognized by the Borrower during the period of emergency and for purposes related to the emergency. When notified to return personnel to a Lender, the Borrower shall make every effort to return the personnel to the Lender's possession immediately after notification. Article XIII RECORD KEEPING. Time sheets and /or daily logs showing hours worked and equipment and materials used or provided by the Lender will be recorded on a shift -by -shift basis by the Lender and /or the loaned employee(s) and will be provided to the Borrower as needed. If no personnel are loaned, the Lender will provide shipping records for materials and equipment, and the Borrower is responsible for any required documentation of use of material and equipment for state or federal reimbursement. The documentation will be presented to the Administration /Finance Section of the Incident Management structure. Under all circumstances, the Borrower remains responsible for ensuring that the amount and quality of all documentation is adequate to enable disaster reimbursement. Article XIV INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. A. INDEMNIFICATION. Except as provided in section B., to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower releases and shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Lender, its officers, employees and agents from and against any and all costs, including costs of defense, claims, judgments or awards of damages asserted or arising directly or indirectly from, on account of, or in connection with providing Emergency Assistance to the Borrower, whether arising before, during or after performance of the Emergency Assistance and whether suffered by any of the Subscribing Organizations or any other person or entity.
