About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the erosion control bond actually covers

When you disturb land in Hendricks County — clearing, grading, or building — the county requires a stormwater and erosion control plan, and an erosion and sediment control bond as a condition of the permit. The bond guarantees you install and maintain the silt fences, inlet protection, and other controls on your approved plan.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Hendricks County (the obligee). If erosion controls fail or sediment leaves the site and the county has to step in to restore them, the county can recover its costs against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

The amount is set by the county from your disturbed area and required controls, so it varies site to site — and the premium varies with it. Enter the figure on your permit; the premium is 2% of that amount, $100 minimum, and a quick soft credit check may apply that never affects your score.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Hendricks County erosion control bond?
The premium is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The bond amount itself is set by the county from your disturbed area and the controls on your approved plan. Apply and your exact price appears in about a minute, right in the calculator.
Do I pay the full bond amount?
No. You pay the premium — 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The bond amount is the surety's maximum liability to the county if controls fail and the county has to restore them — not a deposit.
Is there a credit check?
A quick soft credit check may apply — never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score. It is the only extra step beyond the application, checked for approval; it does not change your price, which is set by the bond amount.
What does the bond guarantee?
That you install and maintain the erosion and sediment controls on your approved plan. If controls fail and the county has to step in, it can recover its restoration costs against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
