Know All Persons By These Presents, That we, the Principal and Surety(ies) hereto are firmly bound to the Director of the
Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control (hereinafter called Director), 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

Whereas said Principal is required under the Utah Solid and Hazardous Act, to have a permit in order to own or

Whereas said Principal is required to provide financial assurance for closure, or closure and post closure care, as a
condition of the permit, and
Whereas said Principal shall establish a standby trust fund as is required when a surety bond is used to provide such

Now, Therefore, the conditions of this obligation are such that if the Principal shall faithfully perform closure, whenever
required to do so, of each facility for which this bond guarantees closure, in accordance with the closure plan and other
requirements of the permit as such plan and permit may be amended, pursuant to all applicable laws, statutes, rules, and
regulations, as such laws, statutes, rules, and regulations may be amended,
And, if the Principal shall faithfully perform post-closure care of each facility for which this bond guarantees post-closure

Or, if the Principal shall provide alternate financial assurance as specified in Sections R315-264-140 through 148, and obtain
the Director's written approval of such assurance, within 90 days after the date of notice of cancellation is received by both

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 been found in violation of the closure requirements of R315-

The liability of the Surety(ies) shall not be discharged by any payment or succession of payments hereunder, unless and

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 owner or operator and to
the Director, provided, however, that cancellation shall not occur during the 120 days beginning on the date of receipt of
