May scripts and tasks invoked via rc.local run with root permissions?

[Jay Ridgley]

I  have a situation where I would like to run a script every time the system 
boots. The requirements are such that it must run as root. If the owner is 
specified as root and invoked from rc.local during start up will the script in 
effect run the same as it were invoked from the command line with sudo?

Thanks,
Jay
