What it is and who needs it.
What the road use bond covers
A road use agreement bond is a road-repair guarantee. When a hauler or operator runs heavy loads over Lavaca County roads not built for that traffic — oilfield, aggregate, wind-farm, or large construction hauling — the County enters a road use agreement and requires a bond to cover the damage.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal / hauler), the surety carrier, and Lavaca County through its Commissioners Court / Road & Bridge department (the obligee). If your hauling damages a county road and you fail to repair it under the agreement, the County can recover its repair cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Operators who repair to County spec treat the bond as a cost of access. We issue the amount the County set, priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $100,000.

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 Commissioners Court. Submit the executed bond with your Lavaca County road use agreement. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the County 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.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
