(A) Depending on the scope of work, the applicant may be required to provide an additional bond along with his or her right-of-way permit application. The bond shall be conditioned that the obligors will indemnify and save the city harmless from any and all liability and all claims and lawsuits for damages that may result from the excavations or that may arise in any manner, including those that may result or arise from negligence or purported negligence of the employees or officials of the city or from the failure or omission to keep or maintain adequate and proper warning signs, lights or barriers at the site of the excavation. The bond shall be further conditioned that the applicant will fill the excavation up to the surface in accordance with the standards set by the city when the work is completed.
(B) If any applicant for a permit has on file a current, sufficient bond in the City Engineer's office, it shall cover any one or more excavations for which a registration has been issued to the applicant.
(C) If at any time, the City Engineer or the Board of Public Works and Safety shall find that any bond required by this subchapter is insufficient for any reason, they shall notify the principal, who shall furnish a new and proper bond before any further registration or permit shall be issued to that principal.
