What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Green Mountain Water & Sanitation District (GMWSD) is a quasi-municipal corporation and political subdivision located within the City of Lakewood, serving roughly 18,500 taps across about nine square miles. It conditions a contractor permit on a $25,000 surety bond for work that taps into or excavates in its water and sewer system.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the District (the obligee). The bond stands behind your compliance with District specifications and your restoration of any infrastructure or right-of-way you disturb while connecting to or working on its system.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the District on a valid claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who build to District specs and restore the site treat the bond as a permit formality.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the District. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Green Mountain Water & Sanitation District before you start work. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $125 at the $25,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
