How Does an Alabama Emergency Management Agency Permit Bond Work? 

As with all surety bonds, an EMA permit bond creates a legal contract between three parties: 

  1. Principal: You, the prefab storm shelter business owner(s) filing the bond
  2. Obligee: The Alabama Emergency Management Agency requiring the bond
  3. Surety: The provider issuing the bond

This holds you financially responsible for upholding Alabama Administrative Code Rule 320-0-1-.03.

If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety. 

How Do I Renew My Bond?

To renew your emergency management agency permit bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted. 

We’ll begin contacting you by phone and email 90 days before the expiration date.
