What it is and who needs it.
What the erosion control bond actually covers
Connecticut requires erosion and sediment control on land-disturbing projects, and each town enforces it locally. The Town of Ledyard can condition its approval on a bond securing the controls in your plan — so the silt fence goes up, the slopes get stabilized, and the site is restored even if the project stalls.
It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Ledyard (the obligee). If you fail to install or maintain the erosion controls and sediment leaves the site, the Town can recover against the bond to bring the site into compliance.
The Town sizes the bond to your site, so you enter the amount on your approval and pricing runs from $100, through one soft credit pull — never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
