IMPAIRMENT LOSSES AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

4. IMPAIRMENT LOSSES AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

Impairment Losses

During the second quarter of 2017, we closed our facility in Tell City, Indiana. The closure resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of $53 related to the disposal of certain assets.  No additional impairment charges occurred in third quarter 2017.

Restructuring Charges 

Related to the Tell City closure, we established restructuring reserves for employee related costs of $262 when the decision was made and facility related costs of $97 at the time the facilities were vacated. We expect to pay the remaining costs by the end of 2017.

The table below summarizes the balance of accrued restructuring costs, which is included in other accrued liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets, and the changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2017:
