No universal exemption is stated. Regulated utility-pole work, other utility work and governmental applicants have different provisions; confirm the actual case.
Does the 90-day work permit establish the bond period?
No. The posted section separates work completion, surface maintenance and three-year post-completion security. No fixed provider term is displayed.
