       Effective date:

       Principal: (legal name and business address of owner or operator)

       Type of Organization: (insert "individual," "joint venture," "partnership," or "corporation")

       State of incorporation:

       Surety(ies): (name(s) and business address(es))

       EPA and State Identification Numbers, name, address and amount(s) for each facility guaranteed by this bond:

       Total penal sum of bond: $

       Surety's bond number:

       Know All Persons By These Presents, That we, the Principal and Surety(ies) are firmly bound to the Director of the Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control of the State of Utah (hereinafter called the Director) in the event that the hazardous secondary materials at the reclamation or intermediate facility listed below no longer meet the conditions of the exclusion under Subsection R315-261-4(a)(24), in the above penal sum for the payment of which we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns jointly and severally; provided that, where the Surety(ies) are corporations

       acting as co-sureties, we, the Sureties, bind ourselves in such sum "jointly and severally" only for the purpose of allowing a joint action or actions against any or all of us, and for all other purposes each Surety binds itself, jointly and severally with the Principal, for the payment of such sum only as is set forth opposite the name of such Surety, but if no limit of liability is indicated, the limit of liability shall be the full amount of the penal sum.

       Whereas said Principal is required, under the Utah Solid and Hazardous Waste Act as amended, to have a permit or interim status in order to own or operate each facility identified above, or to meet conditions under Subsection R315-261-4(a)(24); and

       Whereas said Principal is required to provide financial assurance as a condition of permit or interim status or as a condition of an exclusion under Subsection R315-261-4(a)(24); and

       Whereas said Principal shall establish a standby trust fund as is required when a surety bond is used to provide such financial assurance;

       Now, Therefore, the conditions of the obligation are such that if the Principal shall faithfully, before the beginning of final closure of each facility identified above, fund the standby trust fund in the amount(s) identified above for the facility,

       Or, if the Principal shall satisfy all the conditions established for exclusion of hazardous secondary materials from coverage as solid waste under Subsection R315-261-4(a)(24),

       Or, if the Principal shall fund the standby trust fund in such amount(s) within 15 days after a final order to begin closure is issued by the Director or a U.S. district court or other court of competent jurisdiction,

       Or, if the Principal shall provide alternate financial assurance, as specified in Sections R315-261-140 through R315-261-143 and R315-261-147 through R315-261-151, as applicable, and obtain the Director's written approval of such assurance, within 90 days after the date notice of cancellation is received by both the Principal and the Director from the Surety(ies), then this obligation shall be null and void; otherwise it is to remain in full force and effect.

       The Surety(ies) shall become liable on this bond obligation only when the Principal has failed to fulfill the conditions described above. Upon notification by the Director that the Principal has failed to perform as guaranteed by this bond, the Surety(ies) shall place funds in the amount guaranteed for the facility(ies) into the standby trust fund as directed by the Director.

       The liability of the Surety(ies) shall not be discharged by any payment or succession of payments hereunder, unless and until such payment or payments shall amount in the aggregate to the penal sum of the bond, but in no event shall the obligation of the Surety(ies) hereunder exceed the amount of said penal sum.

       The Surety(ies) may cancel the bond by sending notice of cancellation by certified mail to the Principal and to the Director, provided, however, that cancellation shall not occur during the 120 days beginning on the date of receipt of the notice of cancellation by both the Principal and the Director, as evidenced by the return receipts.

       The Principal may terminate this bond by sending written notice to the Surety(ies), provided, however, that no such notice shall become effective until the Surety(ies) receive(s) written authorization for termination of the bond by the Director.

       (The following paragraph is an optional rider that may be included but is not required.)

       Principal and Surety(ies) hereby agree to adjust the penal sum of the bond yearly so that it guarantees a new amount, provided that the penal sum does not increase by more than 20 percent in any one year, and no decrease in the penal sum takes place without the written permission of the Director.

       In Witness Whereof, the Principal and Surety(ies) have executed this Financial Guarantee Bond and have affixed their seals on the date set forth above.

       The persons whose signatures appear below hereby certify that they are authorized to execute this surety bond on behalf of the Principal and Surety(ies) and that the wording of this surety bond is identical to the wording specified in Subsection R315-261-151(b) as such rules were constituted on the date this bond was executed.

If the Grantor does not either make payments to the Trustee or provide the Trustee with such proof, the Trustee shall within 10 working days after the anniversary date of the establishment of the Fund provide a written notice of nonpayment to the Director.

            Section 16. Amendment of Agreement. This Agreement may be amended by an instrument in writing executed by the Grantor, the Trustee, and the Director, or by the Trustee and the Director if the Grantor ceases to exist.
