Franklin County, VA — Erosion And Sediment Control Bond
Franklin County's single-family agreement in lieu of an erosion-control plan is permit paperwork, not a surety bond. If the county has asked for separate E&S security, use that actual request to prepare this application instead of assuming the agreement removes or establishes a bond requirement.

What this bond does
This listing is for the erosion and sediment-control bond requested for the project. The county's November 2024 agreement describes the applicant's control and stabilization responsibilities but does not state a universal security amount, purchased term or operative bond conditions.
- Who needs it
- The owner or applicant named in the county's accepted security instructions. The agreement also identifies a certified Responsible Land Disturber with a valid number; that project role should not automatically be substituted for the legal bond principal.
- Who it protects
- The requested undertaking supports the E&S duties specified in its accepted form. A building permit, RLD credential or agreement in lieu of a plan is not the same instrument, and none should be described as the contractor's liability coverage.

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 the agreement in lieu itself the bond?
No. It records erosion-control responsibilities for the described single-family process. Any separate security request must be matched to the accepted undertaking.
Should the RLD automatically be the bond principal?
No. Certification as the Responsible Land Disturber identifies a project role. Use the principal required by the county's actual security instructions.
