What this bond does
The form secures performance of the permit conditions and work and payment of the specified labor/material claims, together with compliance with its referenced Ordinance No. 808. Use the actual permit activity rather than assuming every project involves all three listed activities.
- Who needs it
- The legal principal named in the county permit/security request. The obligee is the County of Kauaʻi, not the State of Hawaiʻi; the preparation guide directs names, amount and dates to be supplied from the appropriate project information.
- Who it protects
- This is permit performance security with the form's stated labor/material payment condition, not a general contractor license. Do not broaden that condition into a promise that this replaces every separate payment bond a contract might require.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Does this form only promise to finish the grading?
It also includes payment of the specified labor/material claims and the referenced permit/ordinance conditions. Read the accepted form for the actual undertaking.
Does 30 days mean I can cancel after digging?
No. The form conditions its completion provision on fulfillment of the stated obligations to county satisfaction. Do not use a work-stoppage date as an assumed release date.
