Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

What DOTD’s 2019 order addresses

DOTD’s August 26, 2019 permit order addresses certificates of insurance for annual and single-trip overweight truck permits. It specifies a $100,000 certificate and directs the department to amend the administrative rule to reflect that treatment. The dollar figure describes insurance documentation in that order.

Roads and limits named in the order

The order expressly excludes travel on non-state-maintained highways. It also preserves restrictions and legal requirements not specifically addressed in the order. Keep the road authority and actual permit instructions associated with your trip available when preparing your paperwork.
