I wouldnt be quite so confident in an insurance policy as a safety net in jurisdictions, like the UK, where personal criminal responsibility can attach in cases of more egregious non compliance with Health and safety legislation.
I have no idea whether there is a US equivalent, but if there is, I would have thought that there must be serious questions to answer concerning risk management at the operator and the potential culpability of those responsible for it.
