What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An Alamance County well contractor bond is a compliance guarantee to the county. It stands behind your agreement to construct and abandon wells in keeping with the county's well rules and North Carolina well-construction standards.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Alamance County (the obligee). If a well is improperly constructed or a required abandonment is not done, the county or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
This bond renews on a statutory date. Alamance County ties its well-contractor bonds to a June 30 renewal cycle — we track that date and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your filing stays continuous.

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 $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The term is set on the carrier’s application; the premium covers the period shown there.
Renewal falls on the statutory date, June 30, in the year your term ends.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
