About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the connection bond actually guarantees

Rockland County Sewer District No. 1 operates the sewer system serving much of Rockland County, and conditions sewer-connection work on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a workmanship-and-restoration guarantee: it stands behind connections being made to district standard and any disturbed roadway or right-of-way being restored.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Rockland County Sewer District No. 1 (the obligee). If a connection is incomplete or substandard, or district property is left damaged, the District can recover its repair cost against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the District, you repay the surety. Contractors who make sound connections and restore the site treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

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 $10,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

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 District. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with Rockland County Sewer District No. 1 for your connection permit or registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Rockland Sewer District No. 1 bond?The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier rate book for this bond, not a percentage of the $10,000 bond amount. Same price for every contractor. The $10,000 is set by the District, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000?No. You pay $100. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
What does the bond guarantee?That your sewer connections are made to district standard and any disturbed roadway or right-of-way is restored. If the District has to fix substandard work, it can claim against the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Is there a credit check?No credit check: the application collects no credit information. Small fixed-amount bonds like this one don't need one.
How fast will I have the bond?Bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many contractors finish and have the bond in the same sitting.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
