Legislative Research Commission Note (3/22/2013). References to "bond pool fund" in this statute as it appeared in 2013 Ky. Acts ch. 78, sec. 10, have been changed in codification to "Kentucky reclamation guaranty fund" since the statute establishing the bond pool fund (KRS 350.700) was repealed in that Act and the Kentucky reclamation guaranty fund was established in Section 2 of that Act (KRS 350.503) to replace the bond pool fund. The Reviser of Statutes has made the needed conforming changes in codification under the authority of KRS 7.136(1).
