| 2020-23224 | Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act: Electronic Filing, Settlement, and Civil Money Penalty Procedures | Proposed Rule | The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act and its extensions. To improve program administration, OWCP proposes to amend its existing regulations to require parties to file documents electronically, unless otherwise provided by statute or allowed by OWCP, and to streamline the settlement process. Additionally, to promote accountability and ensure fairness, OWCP proposes new rules for imposing and reviewing civil money penalties prescribed by the Longshore Act. The new rules will set forth the procedures to contest OWCP's penalty determinations. | 2020-12-14 | 2020 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/12/14/2020-23224/longshore-and-harbor-workers-compensation-act-electronic-filing-settlement-and-civil-money-penalty | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-12-14/pdf/2020-23224.pdf | Labor Department; Workers' Compensation Programs Office | 271,530 | The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act and its extensions.
