What it is and who needs it.
What the waste tire bond actually covers
Illinois regulates used and waste tires under Title XIV of the Environmental Protection Act (415 ILCS 5/53 et seq.). An operator of a tire storage, disposal, or processing site must run it in compliance with Pollution Control Board rules, which include financial-assurance requirements so the State isn’t left holding cleanup costs.
A surety bond is one accepted form of that financial assurance. It backs the cost of closing and cleaning up the site — abating a tire pile, controlling mosquito and fire hazards, and proper disposal — if the operator can’t or won’t. The Illinois EPA, not the operator, is protected.
The amount is set by the Illinois EPA based on the estimated closure and cleanup cost for your specific site under the Board’s rules (35 Ill. Adm. Code Part 848). Enter the figure your permit names and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check.
