Carbon County is continuing to save money on its workers' compensation insurance.
During the weekly meeting of the county commissioners' meeting on Thursday, the board voted unanimously to approve the proposal from the Housing and Redevelopment Insurance Exchange (HARIE) for workers' compensation insurance for 2012. The total cost is $346,508, $50,226 less than 2011.
Commissioner William O'Gurek, chairman, said that the lower premium is due to smart planning on the county's part.
