What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Town of Whitestown, Indiana requires an erosion and sediment control bond on land-disturbing projects to guarantee that stormwater controls — silt fence, inlet protection, stabilization — are installed, maintained, and the site is restored. The bond protects the town's drainage system and downstream property from sediment and runoff during construction.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Town of Whitestown as the obligee. If erosion controls fail or the site is not stabilized and the town has to remediate, the town can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the town, you repay the surety. This bond carries one soft credit pull — never a hard inquiry — which informs approval; the price itself is set by the bond amount, at 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.

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.
