Kentucky Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation Utility Deposit Bond
Overview
Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation members in Kentucky who need to establish or restore service without tying up cash in a security deposit have a practical alternative: a surety bond. This bond protects the cooperative against unpaid bills by guaranteeing that account obligations will be met. It works in place of a traditional cash deposit, keeping your money in your pocket while satisfying the cooperative's financial security requirement.
Who Needs This Bond?
Customers opening a new account or restoring disconnected service with Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation are the primary applicants for this bond. If the cooperative has determined that your credit history or account standing triggers a deposit requirement, this bond is your alternative to posting cash upfront. Both residential and commercial members of the cooperative may be asked to satisfy this requirement before service begins.
What is this Bond For?
This bond guarantees that Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation will be compensated if a member fails to pay their electric service bills. The cooperative is the protected party — it can make a claim against the bond to recover unpaid balances up to the bond amount. For the customer, the bond replaces a cash deposit, serving the same financial protection function without requiring liquid funds to be held by the utility.
When is it Required?
Opening a new electric service account with Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation is the most common moment this bond becomes mandatory — specifically when the cooperative's credit review results in a deposit requirement. It is also required when a previously disconnected account is being restored and a deposit condition is attached to reconnection. At that point, you must either post cash or provide this bond before service is activated.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies specifically to service accounts held with Salt River Electric Cooperative Corporation, which serves counties in central Kentucky. It is not a state license bond and is not issued by a state agency — it is a direct requirement of the cooperative itself. The bond is valid for the duration specified by the cooperative's deposit policy.
