  • Is the animal required because of a disability?
  • What work or task has the animal been trained to perform?

  • The event or any aspect of it would be incompatible with rules governing 501(c)(3) organizations.
  • The event or any aspect of it would be excluded from Pumping Station: One's insurance coverage, would void said coverage, or would cause an increase in premiums.

• If an event would incur additional insurance costs to hold, the Board may decide to pay these costs under existing spending authorizations, or pass on all or part of the costs to the event organizers as a condition for hosting the event.
