What it is and who needs it.
What the Egg Harbor ROW bond actually guarantees
When a contractor opens, excavates, or works inside the public right of way — the roadway, shoulder, or sidewalk area the township controls — the Township of Egg Harbor conditions the permit on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your duty to restore the right of way and follow the township's permit conditions.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Township of Egg Harbor (the obligee). If a contractor leaves a cut unrestored, damages township infrastructure, or abandons the work, the township can recover against the bond to make the right of way whole.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore their cuts and close out their permits treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

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 $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
Term and renewal are set in the underwriter's quote.
Keep the bond in force for as long as the obligation behind it runs.
