If you are engaged in the operation of a waste management facility in Pennsylvania, you are required under the Pennsylvania Solid Waste Management Act of July 7, 1980, No. 97, as amended, to file a Pennsylvania Waste Management Facility Bond as a condition of licensure.
A surety bond protects the party requesting the bond, the Obligee, against any financial losses as a result of poor financial decisions, damages, unethical decisions, or a failure to follow state and local laws on the part of you, the Principal. The Pennsylvania Waste Management Facility Bond holds you accountable for your business decisions.
By possessing a Pennsylvania Waste Management Facility Bond, you are telling your Obligee that you can be trusted as a Principal and that you stand behind your business decisions.
