Does the Right of Way Management Division have my current insurance and/or current bond? Am I already a Licensed Right-of-Way Contractor?
Most insurance companies and bonding agents limit coverage to one (1) year. If you are unsure whether your current insurance and/or bond are already on file with our office, you may submit the current version to our Right-of-Way Contractors SmartSheet.

If you are a License holder, you may also use this document to verify your Insurance status (just check the Insurance Expiration column).
How is a Right-of-Way Contractor License obtained?
The following four documents must be provided:
Submit these documents to our Right of Way Contractors SmartSheet for review. If the documents meet the License requirements, our office will issue an invoice. Once the invoice is paid, our office will issue the License.
How long does a License remain active?
The License remains valid until either the Bond and/or Insurance (on file with our office) expires.
How is a Right-of-Way Contractor License renewed?
The renewal documentation will vary. We may require current versions of all four documents described above. The individual documents do NOT share expiration dates. Documents must be submitted to our Right-of-Way Contractors SmartSheet.
How do I add a Right-of-Way Contractor to my permit?
You may only add a Right of Way Contractor to your permit if they have listed you on their Authorized Agent Form (AAF).
Note to Right of Way Contractors: Organizations and individuals that you list on your AAF will be able to submit permit requests and/or pull permits using your Right of Way Contractor License. To avoid having to make frequent changes to the AAF, add an organization name, instead of an individual. The most recent version you file with us will replace previous versions. This is why each version must be comprehensive.
