There is a newer version of the New York Consolidated Laws
2006 New York Code - Receipt Of Sealed Bids; Deposit Required.
§ 24-349 Receipt of sealed bids; deposit required. All bids or proposals which may be sent in answer to the invitation of such advertisement shall be enclosed in a sealed envelope and delivered to the commissioner or to such person as may be designated by the commissioner to receive the same, who shall, upon receipt thereof, forthwith and in the presence of the person offering such bid, deposit it in a box provided for the receipt thereof. But no bid or proposal shall be so received or deposited unless at the time of such presentation there shall be deposited with the person as aforesaid designated a certified check upon a national or state bank, drawn to the order of the comptroller, to an amount not less than five percent of the amount of the bond or security required by such approved form for the faithful performance of the work or furnishing of the materials required to be done or furnished.
