39-73-107. Amount of payments. Subject to the provisions of this chapter and the deductions provided in this chapter, any person who has silicosis and who has, subject to the regulations and standards of the department of labor and industry, been determined by the department to be entitled to payment under this chapter for silicosis must be granted a payment by the department of $350 a month, subject to any additional appropriations.
