About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the revegetation bond actually guarantees

A revegetation and stabilization bond is a site-restoration guarantee. When you move soil — grading, excavation, or site prep — the Township of Mahwah wants assurance you will revegetate the disturbed ground and stabilize slopes so the site does not erode, silt up drains, or wash onto neighboring property after the work.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Township of Mahwah (the obligee). If the disturbed area is left bare or unstable, the township can complete the revegetation and recover its cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the township, you repay the surety. Contractors who revegetate and stabilize as approved get the bond released. We issue the amount the township set, pricing from $100, with no credit check up to $100,000 in the application.

After you buy

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.

How to file it

File with the Township of Mahwah. Submit the executed bond with your soil-movement permit application to the Township of Mahwah. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the township insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.
