| | WCB Case No. 66-0453M Order on Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) |
 | | Here, there is no such former finding, order or award because, while claimant may be contending his occupational disease occurred before 1966 (and it is not clear from this record that claimant is limiting his claim to pre-1966 work exposure), this is claimant's initial claim for an occupational disease claim for hearing loss. |
 | | In other words, where an injury or occupational disease claim has been accepted by the carrier either voluntarily or pursuant to a litigation order finding the claim compensable, and the aggravation rights have run on that claim, any future request for relief regarding that claim is within the Board's own motion jurisdiction. |
 | | In addition, if this order decreases or terminates a former award of compensation, claimant may appeal this order to the Court of Appeals. |
