Summary

The bill amends Section 16‑353 of the Connecticut statutes to state that a permit does not relieve a contractor of compliance with the new excavation rules, and that agencies issuing permits are not liable for a permit holder’s violations. It also removes any automatic requirement to keep an excavation open after work is finished, unless the permit specifically demands it. The change applies to anyone who obtains a permit to excavate in a public highway.
