What this bond does
The reviewed form addresses damage to the highway, sewers, water pipes and other highway structures, together with the specified indemnity for property/person damage connected with the excavation and the principal's acts or omissions.
- Who needs it
- The legal principal about to make the identified town-highway opening. The recipient is the Town of New Canaan; this published single-job form should not be assumed to cover an unlimited series of excavations.
- Who it protects
- This is highway-excavation damage and indemnity security, not general contractor licensing or an insurance policy for every business risk. Match the location and accepted undertaking to the actual request.

Questions about this bond
Is the published form an annual multi-job bond?
No. It is titled Single Job Excavation Bond and asks for the excavation location. Confirm the form required for this request rather than assuming blanket coverage.
Does its two-year wording start at town acceptance?
The reviewed form states a two-year period but does not supply that acceptance-based starting rule. Get the required dates from the accepted form and town/provider instructions.
Where do I apply?
