What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A licensed septic system pumper pumps and hauls on-site sewage (septic) waste in Clark County. The county wants a financial backstop that you'll handle and dispose of waste properly and follow Clark County Public Health's on-site sewage rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Clark County (the obligee). If a pumper violates the county's on-site sewage rules and the county or a customer is harmed, they can recover against the bond.
The bond amount is whatever the county set. Pricing is 0.5% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — same honest pricing as every bond we write.

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.
How to file it
File with Clark County Public Health. Submit the executed bond to Clark County Public Health for your septic pumper license. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
