We are happy to confirm that current and former members of OPSEU Local 330 who participated in the Simcoe County District School Board Insurance Trust between January 1, 1977 and September 30, 2006 can expect to receive a letter from NPT+Ricepoint Class Action Services Inc. in the month of December.

The application packages are being mailed out during the next week to all eligible current and former OPSEU Local 330 members for which there is an address on file. The letter will provide eligible members with the information they will require to apply for their portion of the surplus funds.

We are trying to ensure that anyone who should receive an application package gets one. If you have not yet provided your contact information, please visit the website specifically set up for this distribution at: www.opseulocal330benefitsurplus.com. You will be able to provide your current mailing address. You can also contact NPT+Ricepoint Class Action Services Inc. by phone at 1-866-432-5534 or email at opseulocal330@nptricepoint.com.

If you know of anyone who is a former OPSEU member at the Simcoe County District School Board who may have participated in the Insurance Trust please contact them. If they are unaware of the surplus distribution and feel they are eligible, ask them to contact NPT+Ricepoint Class Action Services Inc. at the above noted addresses or phone number.

Payments will be issued in batches. We expect that the first batch of payments will be issued early in the New Year. Once you receive your application kit, it will be important that you return your application form promptly to ensure that your payment is processed as soon as possible.

We understand that this process has been a long one, and we appreciate your patience.
