D.(1) The Board of Trustees shall designate an actuary who shall be the technical advisor of the Board of Trustees on actuarial matters regarding the operation of the plan created by the provisions of this Subpart, and shall perform such other duties as are required in connection therewith.

(2) The Board of Trustees shall adopt all actuarial tables, assumptions, and rates. The actuary shall make valuations and determinations based on such tables, assumptions, and rates.

(3) At least once in each five-year period, and upon approval of the Board of Trustees, the actuary shall make an actuarial investigation into the mortality, service and compensation experience of the members and beneficiaries of the retirement system. The Board of Trustees shall adopt for the retirement system such mortality, service, and other tables and actuarial assumptions as shall be deemed necessary.

(4)(a) Unless different actuarial assumptions are formally adopted and disclosed, the following assumptions shall be used in determining actuarial equivalents:

(i) Interest shall be compounded annually at the rate of seven percent per annum.

(ii) Annuity rates shall be determined on the basis of the most current mortality table recommended by the Society of Actuaries for retirement systems.

(b) The Board of Trustees may authorize the use of interest and mortality rates in determining the actuarial equivalents which are different from the actuarial assumptions used for other purposes in this Subpart. Any change in such actuarial assumptions shall be considered a part of this plan and shall be considered an amendment to the provisions of this Section. In order to be effective, such change must be formally adopted by the Board of Trustees and disclosed to members of the plan.
