Uintah County, UT — Blanket Encroachment And Right Of Way Bond

Uintah County's road application requires road bonds for agency/owner ROW encroachment permits. For this blanket-named option, confirm the covered installations, county form and amount; a residential building permit and an issued bond do not authorize all road work.

What this bond does

Addresses Uintah County's requested blanket road encroachment security for the covered installations, separately from each work permit.

Who needs it
Agencies, owners and contractors whose Uintah County road encroachment request specifically calls for blanket security.
Who it protects
The road permit retains restoration and repair duties, while the accepted blanket bond defines the county's financial security. Permit indemnity language is not automatically the wording of this option.

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.

A building approval does not replace the road permit

If work occurs within county ROW, such as driveway or utility connections, a separate Road Encroachment Permit is required from the Road Department. The current road application says permits are needed for installations across the road or along its side; attach plans identifying the actual locations.

The road application separates the agency/owner, applicant and contractor, including contractor license and insurance information. Confirm the legal bond principal and recipient instead of treating the residential owner and installation contractor as interchangeable.

Keep restoration duties separate from blanket coverage

The utility-crossing conditions require repair within ten days unless an extension is approved and keep repairs/maintenance with the permit holder for two years after approval. Those work obligations do not establish a two-year bond term.

The application directs the permittee to notify Road Encroachment 24 hours before starting, obtain Blue Stakes marking and secure other parties' permissions where necessary. County permission extends only as far as the county has authority.

Match the request, then purchase

The current road application requires agency/owner road bonds but does not define this offering's blanket amount or covered permit series. Obtain the county's actual blanket form and dates, then confirm the existing Propeller option can issue it.

After issuance, deliver the required instrument through county instructions and complete each applicable work approval. Keeping blanket security on file is not permission to begin an unapproved installation.

Questions about this bond

Does blanket security automatically approve every installation?

No. The county's road application requires permits for installations across or along the ROW. Confirm which sites the blanket security covers and obtain the individual work approvals.

Where should I apply for a road encroachment permit?

Applications for work within the county right-of-way can be submitted to the Uintah County Road Department or online via the Uintah.gov website under the Road Encroachment section.

Does the two-year repair duty establish the bond term?

The current utility-crossing conditions retain the permit holder's repair/maintenance responsibility for two years after approval. That is a work obligation, not proof of a two-year blanket bond term or automatic release.

How do I purchase this offering?

Use the existing Propeller option after confirming the county's blanket form, principal, amount and dates. Deliver the issued instrument as directed and obtain work permission separately.
