What it is and who needs it.
What the individual permit bond covers
Before placing or altering a facility inside Minnesota's trunk highway right of way, a utility gets a MnDOT permit and posts financial security — cash or a surety bond — to back the permitting law. The bond covers the cost of restoring the right of way and the state's engineering and inspection expenses for that work.
MnDOT offers two bond formats. An individual permit bond covers one specific permit application — the right choice when you only have one project, rather than a continuing relationship. (A continuing bond covers all of a company’s permits at once.)
MnDOT sets the amount case by case based on the restoration cost of that project, so there is no fixed statutory figure — you enter what MnDOT required for this permit. We issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
