About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Bridgeport WPCA bond covers

The City of Bridgeport Water Pollution Control Authority (WPCA) runs the City’s sewer and wastewater system. When a contractor connects a building to the sewer, or works on a drain or main tied to that system, the WPCA conditions the permit on a surety bond.

The bond is a workmanship-and-protection guarantee. It runs to the City / WPCA as obligee and stands behind your obligation to make the connection properly, restore the surface, and avoid damage to the sewer system. If your work harms the system or is left defective, the WPCA can recover its cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Pricing on the amount the WPCA set is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum; no credit check up to $100,000, and most approvals are instant.

City of Bridgeport — Water Pollution Control AuthorityThe City of Bridgeport Water Pollution Control Authority requires this bond as a condition of sewer / drain connection work tied to the City’s sewer system; the bond amount and terms are set by the Bridgeport WPCA. We have framed this conservatively rather than citing a specific ordinance number, because the WPCA administers its own permit terms rather than a numbered state statute. Confirm the required amount on your permit.

After you buy

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 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.

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 Bridgeport WPCA. Submit the executed bond with your sewer / drain connection permit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the City insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with the bond amount the WPCA required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
