About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the special-permit bond actually guarantees

The Suffolk County Department of Public Works (SCDPW) regulates connections into the county sewer system. For a single specific job, the DPW issues a special permit and requires a bond for that connection. The bond is a workmanship-and-restoration guarantee: it stands behind that connection being made to county standard.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Suffolk County (the obligee). If the connection is incomplete or substandard, or county roadway and infrastructure is left damaged, the County can recover against the bond.

Unlike the annual general-permit bond, the special-permit bond is tied to one job — the right choice when you are not a regular sewer-connection contractor but need to make a single connection. If the surety pays the County, you repay the surety.

Suffolk County DPW — Sewer Connection Special PermitThe Suffolk County Department of Public Works requires a bond as a condition of a special (single-job) sewer-connection permit; the amount and terms are set by the DPW on the permit. The special permit covers one specific connection, as distinct from the annual general-permit registration. Confirm your required amount with SCDPW.
