Section R10-4-111. Emergency Compensation Award

A.      After receiving a claim submitted under R10-4-107, an opera- tional unit may grant one emergency compensation award for a claim if the operational unit determines there is a reasonable likelihood that:

1.        The person to whom the emergency compensation award is made is or will be an eligible claimant, and

2.        Serious hardship will result to the person if an immediate compensation award is not made.

B.       An operational unit that makes an emergency compensation award shall ensure that the emergency compensation award does not exceed $1,000.

C.      If the Board decides under R10-4-108 to make a compensation award to the claimant, the Board shall ensure that the amount of the emergency compensation award is deducted from the final compensation award made to the claimant.
