There was an overcast and a bit of misty rain on the morning of Tuesday, October 12, 2021 as volunteers and staff arrived at Cypress Point Country Club to set up for the 35th annual Virginia Ship Repair Foundation Golf Tournament. Soon, the rain stopped, the clouds drifted, and golf was in full swing for the day. Golfers checked in with the volunteer staff at registration to receive lunch and commemorative items in celebration of our 35th year. It was a beautiful fall day to tee off and enjoy an afternoon with cool refreshments along the course.

The Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA, or the Longshore Act), 33 U.S.C. 901 et seq., is enforced and administered by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). Longshore Insider articles have previously covered the DOL, District Directors, Administrative Law Judges, and the Benefits Review Board in detail.  Several changes involving the administration of the Longshore Act have accumulated during the past few years, and I think that it’s time to bring everything up to date by briefly summarizing these changes.

The 16th Annual Ship Repair Digital LEGO Competition has officially launched! The purpose of the competition is to promote the ship repair industry while increasing competitive mathematical, analytical and conceptual skills in middle school aged students.

We need volunteers to serve as technical advisors and judges. This is a great opportunity to give back to the community and represent your company!
