A. No provision contained in this Subpart shall limit or supersede the duties and responsibilities of the Board of Commissioners or Examiners. Act 902, 2004 Leg., Regular Session (codified at R.S. 34:1131 et seq.) created the Board of Louisiana River Pilot Review and Oversight and the purpose was to provide review and oversight of decisions by the Board of Commissioners or Examiners regarding the actions taken by any pilot while the pilot is acting under his state commission. The Board, acting in its role, performs its duty under R.S. 34:1135.C to request, receive, and review reports prepared by the Board of Commissioners or Examiners similar to court of appeals in the judicial system but, unlike a court of appeals, also provides a forum for appeals from any party to a formal disciplinary proceeding before the Board of Commissioners or Examiners, and also provides a forum for sworn complaints to be filed, pursuant to its duty under R.S. 34:1135.G to receive sworn complaints against any pilot.
AUTHORITY NOTE: Promulgated in concurrence with R.S. 34:1135.C, F, G, M.
