What it is and who needs it.
What the Bountiful excavation bond covers
The City of Bountiful requires an excavation permit before anyone cuts, trenches, or digs in a city street or public right-of-way. The permit is administered by the Bountiful City Engineering Department / Public Works, and the city conditions it on a surety bond standing behind the work.
The bond guarantees you will perform the excavation to the city’s standards and restore the street, curb, gutter, and right-of-way to their prior condition when you finish. If you leave a defective patch or fail to restore the surface, the city can recover against the bond to make the repairs.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Bountiful (the obligee). If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety — so contractors who restore their cuts cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount the city set at a flat 3% with no credit check.
