What this bond does

Provide accepted security for an identified Pittsburgh water/sewer street-opening project, with the city's opening and restoration processes kept separate.

Who needs it
Applicants or contractors arranging water/sewer excavation under a City of Pittsburgh ROW opening permit.
Who it protects
The accepted instrument determines the beneficiary and secured duties. DOMI's current excavation sheet requires a bond based on the amount/cost of work, but is not the complete condition for this provider's water/sewer offering.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

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.

Identify the project and reviewing authority

DOMI requires an Opening Permit for excavation in the street or sidewalk. Its May 2026 sheet asks for the applicant, contractor, precise location, opening dimensions and work dates, with a traffic-obstruction description.

The catalog option specifically says Single Project. Have DOMI and the provider confirm its fit for the water/sewer work and any separate utility review; do not substitute a water-authority beneficiary merely because pipes are involved.

Obtain DOMI's amount and accepted condition

The current sheet says the Director, in consultation with the City Solicitor, sets the sum according to the amount and cost of work. A contractor may instead request DOMI approval to maintain annual security.

This option supplies no amount or term. Obtain the project-specific request and condition, and confirm whether an existing approved annual filing makes another bond unnecessary. The annual alternative does not turn this single-project option into blanket coverage.

Apply, file and follow restoration closeout

Purchase Now opens Propeller's existing Pittsburgh water/sewer Single Project Bond application. Provide the legal principal, project details and city's accepted form/sum, then check and submit the issued document as instructed.

Complete the OneStopPGH permit process and separate insurance requirements. DOMI's sheet distinguishes pre-work, opening and final-restoration inspections; closing the opening stage does not establish final restoration acceptance or bond release.

Questions about this bond

Is this an annual blanket bond?

No. The option is labeled Single Project. DOMI approval of annual security is a separate arrangement that must be confirmed.

Does the current city sheet state one fixed bond sum?

No. It says the Director and City Solicitor determine the amount based on the work. Obtain the written requirement.

Does the opening inspection complete restoration?

No. The city sheet describes a separate restoration permit and final inspection. Confirm acceptance and any continuing bond obligation.
