10089.20. The authority shall renew any policy of basic residential earthquake insurance, provided the authority receives payment of the applicable renewal premium on or before the expiration date stated in the policy. The authority shall nonrenew, rescind, or cancel a policy if the property is no longer covered by an underlying policy of residential property insurance.
