What it is and who needs it.
What the Coweta-Fayette EMC deposit bond actually does
Coweta-Fayette Electric Membership Corporation is a member-owned, nonprofit electric cooperative serving Coweta, Fayette, and neighboring Georgia counties. Rather than compel a member to leave a cash security deposit on file before starting or continuing electric service, the cooperative will accept a surety bond in the same amount instead.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Coweta-Fayette EMC (the obligee). The bond stands behind your account for electric service up to the amount stated on the bond. If the account goes unpaid, the cooperative can claim against the bond; if the surety pays, you repay the surety — it is not insurance for you.
Coweta-Fayette EMC sets the required amount for each account, typically weighing your payment history and the service address. There is no single statutory figure. Enter the amount the cooperative quoted; we price the bond at 2% of that amount, $100 minimum, and no credit check up to $15,000.

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.
