The Fund was established by the Legislature in 1919. No premium has been charged for this coverage since 1953. Collection of premiums must resume if the Fund reserve is depleted below $2 million. Currently, the fund has 2,978 bondholders with total coverage in force of $681,512,932 (as of 12/31/12).
