What it is and who needs it.
What the road permit bond actually covers
When a load is too large or too heavy for ordinary travel, Orange County issues an oversize or superheavy haul permit for the move. Because those loads can crack pavement, stress bridges, and damage culverts, the county conditions the permit on a road-damage bond.
The bond stands behind the county roads and bridges on your route — if your haul damages county infrastructure, Orange County can recover its repair costs against the bond rather than absorbing them. The amount the county sets reflects the size of the load and the exposure along the route.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Orange County (the obligee). If the county pays a claim against the bond, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the county requires at 1% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum.
