What it is and who needs it.
What the sediment & erosion control bond covers
Durham County administers land-disturbing activity through its sediment and erosion control program, assigning each approved project a job control number. The bond stands behind your agreement to install and maintain the approved erosion-control measures so sediment does not leave the site.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Durham County (the obligee). If the erosion-control measures aren't installed or maintained as approved, the county can recover against the bond to bring the site into compliance.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount Durham County set, at a flat 3% with no credit check, on the bond form the county names.
