What it is and who needs it.
What the Cameron Parish permit bond covers
Cameron Parish sits on Louisiana's southwest coast, and its public roads are governed by the Cameron Parish Police Jury — the parish's elected governing body. When a contractor or utility needs to cut, bore, cross, or otherwise disturb a parish road or its right-of-way, the Police Jury issues a permit and conditions it on a surety bond.
The bond is a restoration-and-compliance guarantee to the Police Jury and the public: it stands behind your promise to repair the road to parish standards, follow the permit's conditions, and leave the right-of-way in the condition you found it. The application captures the permit number and the parish road(s) affected so the bond ties to your specific job.
It is not insurance for you — if the parish has to pay to repair damage you leave behind and recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Contractors who restore the road and close out the permit cleanly treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Police Jury. Submit the executed bond to the Cameron Parish Police Jury permitting office at 148 Smith Circle, Cameron, to clear your permit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the office insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
