What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
An erosion-control / land-disturbance bond is a site-protection guarantee. When you grade, clear, or disturb land in the City of Oconomowoc, the bond promises the City that you'll install and maintain the silt fence, inlet protection, and other erosion controls, and stabilize the site when you're done.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Oconomowoc (the obligee). If sediment leaves the site or controls fail and the City has to remediate, it can recover its costs against the bond.
The bond stays in place until the City releases it — typically once the site is stabilized and the disturbed area is restored. We hold the filing and send renewal notices if the project runs long.

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
