WA PTAC: Longshore & Harbor Workers Compensation Act (LHWCA)

LHWCA requires insurance to work around navigable waterways.

WA State has 103 navigable waterways - rivers, lakes and ocean. For those planning to work on government contracts around these waterways, you need this information to protect you from claims.

Are you considering a solicitation where performance takes place by a navigable waterway? If so, are you aware of the insurance requirements to protect your company from injuries, illness, or death? Hear from retired U.S. Navy Contracting Officer, Terry Homburg, sharing his experience, dealing with this Act and the insurance for it.
