Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating has appointed a 16-member special legislative task force to review funding alternatives for the $3.5 billion Oklahoma Teachers' Retirement System, Oklahoma City. The task force also will make recommendations on how to reduce the system's nearly $4.6 billion unfunded liability. Among the possibilities: issue pension obligation bonds, make plan design changes, increase the state's contribution or sell state assets.
