About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the environmental permit bond covers

The City of Stamford regulates activity affecting wetlands, watercourses, and drainage through its Environmental Protection Board. When the Board issues a permit for a regulated activity, it can condition that permit on a surety bond.

The bond runs to the City of Stamford as obligee. It guarantees you carry out the permitted work to the Board’s conditions — installing the required protections, restoring disturbed areas, and meeting the permit’s environmental safeguards. If the work is left incomplete or out of compliance and the city has to act, it can recover its cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Applicants who complete the work to the permit treat the bond as a formality. Premiums start from $100; no credit check up to $100,000.

City of Stamford — Environmental Protection BoardThe City of Stamford requires this bond as a condition of an Environmental Protection Board permit for a regulated activity; the bond amount and terms are set by the Stamford Environmental Protection Board as part of the permit. We issue the amount your permit names — send it to us if you want the figure confirmed.

After you buy

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.

How to file it

File with the Stamford EPB. Submit the executed bond to the City of Stamford Environmental Protection Board. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
