Under the additional operating requirements of Section 34, which is the exception to the required conduct?

• A. Have no instances of dishonored drafts, missing reports or defaults for a minimum period of 24 months
• B. Have no instances of dishonored drafts for 12 months
• C. Have no missing reports for 18 months
• D. Have no defaults for 36 months

Answer: (C)

The key idea is that there are time-based safe harbor provisions in Section 34 for maintaining certain duties. The exception to the required conduct is granted when there have been no missing reports for 18 months. This shows consistent reporting compliance and allows a carrier to avoid applying the stricter conduct rules under normal circumstances. The other options refer to different issues (dishonored drafts or defaults) or propose timeframes that aren’t the defined exception, so they don’t meet the policy’s specific safe harbor for missing reports.
