SPECIAL TRANSPORTATION PERMIT
ATTACHMENT 82A
(REVISED 06-2016)
Please read this permit carefully! This permit authorizes the movement of an oversize and/or overweight load or vehicle at the
dimensions authorized on the permit and over the approved route. Corrections must be made before the movement begins. Once the
permit is accepted, all permit requirements and conditions must be met. Contact (503) 373-0000 for oversize and/or overweight permits
and information.
To legally operate in Oregon, tax and registration requirements must also be met unless otherwise exempt by statute or rule. This
Transportation Variance Permit does not authorize your vehicle to operate in Oregon in excess of the vehicle’s Registration weight or tax
declared weight(s). Vehicle(s) must be registered and tax declared at the highest weight(s) appropriate to your operation. Contact ODOT
MCTD Registration at (503) 378-6699 for information.
Permittee and Driver Responsibility - In accordance with OAR 734-082-0070, you are responsible and liable for any and all injury to
persons or damage to property and all damage to or destruction of any highway or any highway structure resulting from the oversize or
overweight movement. You are responsible for determining adequate clearance, both vertical and horizontal, for movement under this
permit. It is the responsibility of the motor carrier to notify the Over-Dimension Permit Unit in the event of striking a structure in
the course of a movement within 24 hours of the accident. You may be required to furnish proof of liability and property damage
insurance and to file either a certified check or a surety bond as deemed necessary. You are also responsible for contacting public utilities
(i.e. telephone, electric, cable, etc.) to determine oversize load clearance.
The driver is responsible for complying with all applicable Oregon laws in addition to all permit requirements and provisions. It is the
driver’s responsibility to determine if local road conditions are hazardous, unless the Department of Transportation has closed or posted
signs on the highway displaying restrictions due to weather/road conditions in the area. In such cases the permitted vehicle must leave the
highway at the next available exit, truck stop, rest area, or next available safe parking place and shall not proceed until the hazardous
condition abates. Drivers making the wrong choice and continuing to operate when hazardous conditions exist, or who violate any
other permit requirement or provision, are subject to citation. In addition, the responsible Motor Carrier is subject to civil
monetary complaint on a first offense; and in the instance of repeated violations, is subject to additional sanctions including
cancellation of permit and/or denial of future permit requests.
Drivers must enter an Oregon scale when directed to do so by an open sign. If the vehicle is equipped with a transponder and you are
transporting an oversize/overweight vehicle or load, you must enter the open scale regardless of receiving a green
light.
This permit is not valid for vehicles licensed, or which can be used as recreational vehicles as defined by ORS 446.003(33), unless
specifically authorized on the permit. This permit is not valid for any combination of more than two vehicles not used exclusively for
commercial purposes and subject to ORS Chapters 823 and 825.
This is a brief summary of regulations governing the transportation of non-divisible loads and/or vehicles. For a complete copy of
Oregon Administrative Rule, Chapter 734, Division 82, contact us at the address shown on this attachment or at our Website:
This permit is valid for the time period specified on the permit. Single trip permits (STPs) are valid for a single move and shall not
exceed ten days. Continuous trip permits (CTPs) are valid for multiple trips within the time frame specified on the permit not to exceed
one year. The department may cancel a permit if the permit holder violates any permit terms or conditions, obtains it improperly, or if
public interest requires cancellation.
Single trip permits will propose a suggested route that must be followed in the sequence shown on the permit. Actual operation under the
authority of a single trip permit will establish that the Permittee has verified the adequacy of the suggested route. Therefore, it is required
that the Permittee contact the Over-Dimension Permit Unit to request changes deemed necessary to the suggested route prior to actual
operation. The Permittee assumes all liability for any damages resulting from operations under the permit. Continuous trip
permits generally are accompanied by route maps displaying routes authorized by the permit. On occasion, some continuous trip permits
are route specific and require travel in the sequence suggested on the permit. In those instances it will similarly be required that the
Permittee contact the Over-Dimension Permit Unit prior to operation if the suggested route is deemed inadequate. Operation under the
permit means the Permittee confirms the suggested route is appropriate and the Permittee assumes all liability for any damages
resulting from operations under the permit.
