Board Of Garrett County Commissioners, MD — Stormwater Management Bond
For a Garrett County stormwater-security request, start with the approved facility plan and the Stormwater Management Office's instructions. The published ordinance ties security to completing that plan—not simply holding a contractor license.

What this bond does
The county-hosted 2010 ordinance's performance-bond section describes security before building/grading permit issuance for development requiring a stormwater management facility. It addresses completion of the approved stormwater plan, ordinance/applicable-law compliance and time limitations. Confirm the provision's current application to your project with the office.
- Who needs it
- The developer or designated representative preparing the county's project security. Section 6.1 identifies non-single-family residential, commercial, institutional and public-occupancy development; do not infer a blanket requirement or exemption for every residential project from this listing.
- Who it protects
- Section 7 describes non-expiring or auto-renewing surety or other security acceptable to the Stormwater Management Office, with a sum not less than the facility's total estimated construction cost. This is project-specific security, not a standard purchase term or proof that any offered form/issuer is accepted. Match the requested legal Board/recipient wording; the reviewing office and Maryland state agency are not automatically interchangeable obligees.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Is this just an erosion-control contractor license bond?
The reviewed section addresses performance of an approved stormwater management facility plan. Match that project obligation rather than substituting general licensing or temporary erosion-control security.
Can I assume a partial reduction when a stage is finished?
No. The published ordinance describes completed/accepted stages under a procedure the office specifies in writing before plan approval. Get the actual project procedure.
How do I start the stormwater-bond application?
