What it is and who needs it.
What the right-of-way bond covers
El Paso County's Department of Public Works issues work-in-the-right-of-way permits for digging, boring, excavating, paving, and placing utilities in a County right-of-way. It conditions those permits on a surety bond as proof of financial resources to restore and repair the affected right-of-way.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and El Paso County (the obligee). If you fail to restore the right-of-way to County standards, the County can recover against the bond up to its penal sum.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the County on a valid claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the right-of-way to the Engineering Criteria Manual treat the bond as a permit formality.
