A construction & demolition debris (C&DD) facility in Ohio must give the Ohio EPA financial assurance that the site will be closed and cared for properly. A surety bond is one accepted mechanism — sized to your approved closure / post-closure cost estimate. We issue it at a flat 3% with a soft credit pull only.
















Enter your approved cost-estimate amount, consent to a soft pull, and we issue. Here is the whole thing:
Your facility details, the bond amount (your approved closure / post-closure estimate), and the effective date — plus a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Closure bonds get a quick underwriting look since the amount can be large; if anything else is needed, an underwriter reaches out within 48 hours. The soft pull never affects your score.
Pay online and receive the executed performance bond ready to file as your facility’s financial assurance. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the EPA insists.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter your approved closure / post-closure estimate and the premium updates.
Ohio regulates construction & demolition debris (C&DD) facilities under ORC Chapter 3714, with the financial assurance rules in Ohio Administrative Code Chapter 3745-400. A facility owner or operator must demonstrate the money will be there to close the facility and care for it after closure — a surety performance bond is one of the accepted mechanisms.
The bond amount equals the Ohio EPA-approved cost estimate for final closure and post-closure care. That estimate is reviewed annually and revised when costs change, so the bond amount can move over the life of the facility — your application captures the closure and post-closure figures separately.
If the owner fails to close or maintain the site, the EPA can call on the bond, and the surety pays into a standby trust to fund the work. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the EPA approved, at a flat 3%, with a soft credit pull only.
Submit the application with your EPA-approved closure / post-closure amount and a one-time soft-pull consent — most issue within a business day.
