About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the E&S control bond actually covers

Virginia delegates erosion and sediment control to local programs, and Greensville County administers its own. Before the County issues a land-disturbing 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 Greensville County (the obligee). If you leave a site without functioning controls — silt fence down, no stabilization, sediment leaving the property — the County can draw on the bond to complete or correct the work.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the County, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow their approved plan treat the bond as a permit formality. Enter the amount the County set — the premium is 2% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, with one soft credit check that never affects your score.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Greensville County E&S control bond?The premium is 2% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — your exact price appears when you apply. The bond amount itself is set by Greensville County from your approved erosion & sediment control plan.
Do I pay the full bond amount?No. You pay the premium — from $100, depending on your bond amount. The bond amount is the surety's maximum liability to the County if you fail to install or maintain your controls — it is not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Is there a credit check?Yes — one soft credit pull, which never affects your score. Your price is 2% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.
How is this different from the stormwater management bond?Erosion & sediment control covers the temporary measures that keep sediment on-site during construction. Stormwater management covers the permanent, post-construction controls. Greensville County may require both; we write each.
Where do I file it?With Greensville County, alongside your land-disturbing permit. We issue the executed bond ready to submit.
