What it is and who needs it.
What the land-disturbance bond actually covers
Virginia delegates erosion and sediment control to local programs, and the City of Danville runs its own. Before the City issues a land-disturbance permit, it can require a bond guaranteeing you install, inspect, and maintain the erosion and sediment controls shown on your approved plan.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Danville (the obligee). If you leave a site without functioning controls, the City can draw on the bond to complete or correct the work and stabilize the site.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow their approved plan treat the bond as a permit formality. Enter the amount the City set — pricing is 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum, and no credit check up to $100,000.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
