About this file
This is a Bid Bond document for the Jordan Basin Improvement District's 13800 South Mountain View Corridor Sewer Project located in Utah. The bond serves as a guarantee that a bidder will enter into a contract if their bid is accepted and will provide required performance and payment bonds along with proof of insurance coverage. The project involves installing approximately 500 linear feet of 18-inch sanitary sewer pipeline, constructing 3 sanitary sewer manholes, executing a 434-foot-long guided bore with a 36-inch minimum casing to cross under the Mountain View Corridor, and completing associated construction items for new sewer lines. Only contractors prequalified for the Multiple Mountain View Corridor Sewer Projects are eligible to submit bids on this work.
The bid bond requires bidders to designate a penal sum amount in U.S. dollars, with the surety company required to appear on the U.S. Department of the Treasury's current list (Circular 570, as amended) and be authorized to conduct business in the State of Utah. The bond protects the Jordan Basin Improvement District by ensuring that if a bidder fails to execute the contract after bid acceptance or fails to provide required bonds and insurance documentation, the district can recover the difference between the bid amount and the actual cost to contract with another party, up to the penal sum amount. The principal bidder remains obligated to cover the full difference between their bid and the executed contract price, regardless of whether that amount exceeds the bond's penal sum. Notarization and an Attorney-in-Fact signature from the surety company are required for bond execution.

WHEREAS, the Principal has submitted to Obligee a certain Bid, hereby made a part hereof, to enter into a written contract for the construction of improvements for a project known as 13800 SOUTH
