Telecommunications Carriers providing intrastate telecommunications service operating in Kansas are required under paragraph 7 of the Kansas State Corporate Commission’s Order in Docker No. 99-DSNC558-COC adopted June 7, 1999, to file a Kansas Corporate Commission Utility Bond as a condition of licensure.
A surety bond protects the party requesting the bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial decisions, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to follow state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. The Kansas Corporate Commission Utility Bond holds you accountable for your business decisions.
By possessing a Kansas Corporate Commission Utility Bond, you are telling your Obligee that you can be trusted as a Principal and that you stand behind your business decisions.
