The document discusses Kentucky's Worker's Compensation Special Fund, which was created in 1996 to pay claims from before 1997 and relieve the burden on non-coal employers. It has a $1.6 billion liability and pays 9,400 active claims, over half of which are for black lung disease. While employer assessments that fund it have decreased, the Labor Cabinet's withdrawals from the fund have increased from 29% in 2010 to a projected 45% in 2013. This extends the estimated payoff date for the fund's liabilities from 2019 to 2029. The presentation calls for limiting withdrawals to focus on closing the fund.
