How much does a hazardous waste bond cost in New York?
If you manage contiguous land, structures and other appurtenances that treat, store or dispose of hazardous waste, you are required to post a surety bond. The amount of these bonds varies and is determined by the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation. Be advised, having your given bond amount at hand when speaking with a surety expert can speed up your bonding process.
This specific bond type is subject to underwriting. This means your bond premium is determined by the financial credentials of your credit report. SuretyBonds.com can get you bonded at the lowest available rate. Submit a bond request or call 1 (800) 308-4358 for your personalized quote.
Why do I need this bond?
By posting a bond, the principal guarantees to faithfully fund the standby trust funds (in the amount prescribed by the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Conservation) prior to the beginning of final closure of each hazardous waste facility.
