District Director

(16) District Director means a person appointed as provided in sections 39 and 40 of the LHWCA, or his or her designee, who is authorized to develop and adjudicate claims as provided in this subchapter (see 725.350). The term District Director is substituted for the term Deputy Commissioner wherever that term appears in the regulations.

Any action taken by a person under the authority of a district director will be considered the action of a deputy commissioner.
