Who it protects

Financial assurance for a named obligation is distinct from pollution liability insurance. The permit and approved plan determine the work being secured.

Before you buy

  2. Collect the permit, site description, and restoration or closure plan.
  3. Identify who must approve the work and release the financial assurance.

Common questions

Does the request cover one well or a permitted group of wells?

Identify wells, operator and permit conditions. Compare that information with the exact capacity, activity and obligee named in the written request. Similar catalog labels do not establish an interchangeable form.

Is a type guide the bond I should purchase?

A type guide explains the activity. Choose a jurisdiction-associated parent listing and compare its actual source options with your written requirement; the type page is not a purchasable form.
