What this bond does
Houston's published form binds the permit holder and surety to the City of Houston for installation of storm water quality structural controls in accordance with the permit, drawings and specifications. It is not a general license to perform excavation or a bond for every construction obligation on the site.
- Who needs it
- The permit holder named as principal on the City of Houston storm water quality permit and bond form.
- Who it protects
- The City of Houston is the obligee. The bond secures the principal's specified installation obligations; it does not replace the applicant's liability insurance or authorize work outside the permit.

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
Does this cover all stormwater work at my project?
The published form addresses installation of structural controls required by the identified permit. Match those controls and plans to the city's request; do not assume it covers separate maintenance agreements, other sites or unrelated construction.
What date determines the bond's duration?
The form uses the city's initial inspection confirming proper installation, followed by one year. The actual inspection date and any city-directed requirements need to be established for your project.
