Excavation Permit

An excavation permit is required when excavation is planned within any Town right-of-way. At least seventy‐two (72) hours* before work commences submit an application for the street closure, lane reduction and any associated detours necessary to complete the work at townclerk@townofstevensville.gov The seventy‐two hour timeframe is a minimum, when possible requests can, and should, be submitted seven (7) to ten (10) days in advance.

Please include the following with your application:

1) Site Plan

2) Traffic Control Plan (if applicable)

3) Certificate of liability insurance in the minimum amounts of $750,000.00 per claimant and $1,500,000.00 per occurrence.

All street closures and lane reductions are to be removed immediately after the work is complete. The Town is to be notified the street(s) have been re‐opened by contacting Town Hall and reporting the status upon completion of the work.

Failure to follow this process may result in fines ranging from $100 to $500 each day a violation exists. The Town has the right to, and will issue, a Notice and Order to Stop Work when necessary. Repeated failure to comply with this procedure may impact the ability to receive approval for subsequent applications permits.

The party placing street closures and lane reductions is responsible to provide notification to affected parties verbally or in writing, unless otherwise impacted by an emergency repair need, at least twenty‐four (24) hours in advance of the closure or lane reduction.
