What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Sewer work in Santa Fe means tapping into infrastructure the city depends on, often inside the public right-of-way. The City of Santa Fe requires a $5,000 sewer work permit bond as a condition of the permit — a guarantee that you will complete the connection or repair to city standards and restore the site.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Santa Fe (the obligee). If your work fails inspection, damages the city sewer, or you leave the trench or pavement unrestored, the city can recover its cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow city specs treat the bond as a routine permit step — and we keep it active so a lapse never holds up the next job.
