The bond Greensville County requires under its stormwater management program, guaranteeing you build and maintain the stormwater controls — basins, channels, post-construction BMPs — on your approved plan. The County sets the amount, and the premium is 2% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum. A quick soft credit check may apply — never a hard inquiry.
















Enter your amount, consent to one soft credit pull, and file with the County. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the County required, and the effective date — plus a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Most clear quickly; if underwriting needs anything, you hear from an underwriter within 48 hours. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Submit the executed bond with your stormwater management / land-disturbance permit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the County insists on them.
Virginia administers stormwater through the Virginia Stormwater Management Program (VSMP), delegated to local governments, and Greensville County runs its own. Before the County issues a stormwater / land-disturbance permit, it can require a bond guaranteeing you construct and maintain the stormwater management facilities on your approved plan.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Greensville County (the obligee). If a basin, channel, or post-construction BMP is not built, not built to plan, or not maintained through stabilization, 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. Developers who build their stormwater controls to 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.
These are the actual underwriting fields, including a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Submit once and your bond is typically issued within 1–2 business days.
