AI Summary

This bill requires homeowners' insurance policies to include coverage for the cleanup of accidental home heating oil spills. Specifically, it mandates that insurers provide at least $75,000 in first-party property coverage and $250,000 in third-party liability coverage to address the costs of assessing, remediating, and defending against claims related to such spills, unless the policyholder explicitly rejects this coverage in writing. The bill also defines key terms like "residential property" and "liquid fuel tank" to clarify the scope of the required coverage.
