Description

Island Creek Coal Company (Island Creek) appeals from a decision of the Industrial Commission finding that Keithel Breeding (Breeding) contracted an occupational hearing loss. Island Creek contends that (1) Code ? 65.1-46.1, which makes ordinary diseases of life compensable, is inapplicable to Breedings hearing loss because he did not suffer any injurious exposure after the effective date of the statute, July 1, 1986, and (2) even if Code ? 65.1-46.1 is applicable to Breedings claim, he failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence and to a reasonable medical certainty the elements required under that Code section. We hold that Code ? 65.1-46.1 is applicable to Breedings claim and that he met his burden of proof; therefore we affirm the commissions decision.
