What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department permits businesses that clean, pump, and haul liquid waste — septic, grease, and similar — and conditions the permit on a $500 surety bond. The bond is a public-health-protection guarantee that you'll handle and dispose of waste according to the Department's rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department (the obligee), with the public and the environment as the protected parties. If a hauler violates the permit rules and harm results, the Department or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your permit. Let it lapse and the Department can act against the permit — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $500 filing continuous.
