About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Ohio Administrative Code Chapter 3701-29, adopted under Ohio Revised Code Chapter 3718, requires an installer of household sewage treatment systems to register with each local health district where the installer performs work, and conditions that registration on a surety bond or equivalent financial assurance. Champaign Health District is the local health district administering registration and bonding for installers working within Champaign County.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Champaign Health District (the obligee), with property owners and the public as the protected parties. If an installer fails to comply with the sewage treatment system rules and a covered claim results, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the life of your registration, so we track it and notify you ahead of your statutory renewal date to keep your $10,000 filing continuous.

OAC 3701-29-03Ohio Administrative Code Rule 3701-29-03, adopted under Ohio Revised Code Chapter 3718, requires an installer of household sewage treatment systems to register with each local health district where the installer performs work and to maintain a surety bond or financial assurance sized to the installer's registration category. Confirm your exact registration category and bond amount with Champaign Health District before filing.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Champaign Health District septic installer bond?The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond. The $10,000 bond amount is set by Champaign Health 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.
How fast will I have the bond?Registration bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many installers finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, so most applicants approve instantly. If a check ever runs on this bond, it's a soft pull that won't affect your score.
Does this bond cover me in other Ohio counties?Registration is separate in each local health district where you work — OAC 3701-29-03 requires that. The bond itself, though, must provide statewide coverage for work performed in any Ohio local health district under that same rule, so confirm with Champaign Health District whether this bond can also satisfy a registration in another county.
