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.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't have one.
