The noncurrent liabilities associated with our pension and other postretirement benefit plans are classified as Postretirement benefits and other long-term liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we have a noncurrent pension liability of $67.3 million and $73.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we have a noncurrent other postretirement benefits liability of $301.1 million and $304.8 million, respectively.

Due to the availability of our pre-funded pension balances (previous contributions in excess of prior required pension contributions), we expect our regulatory pension funding requirements in 2023 to be less than $1.0 million. We expect our cash payments for other postretirement benefit obligations in 2023, net of GM cost sharing, to be approximately $14.6 million.
