2007As we wrote in the case of In re De Maio, supra, 893 A.2d at 585 , “[T]he Board’s final determinations, whether they are characterized as findings of ultimate fact or conclusions of law, are owed no deference; our review is de novo.” Analogizing the deference standard applicable to the Board (with respect to Hearing Committees) to the deference standard of the Court of Appeals (with respect to the Board), we explained in the case of In re Pierson, 690 A.2d 941, 946-47 (D.C.1997), that no deference is owed with respect to ultimate facts that are really conclusions of law.

1988Whalen, 445 U.S. at 688 , 100 S.Ct. at 1435 . 4 We believe John son embodies the premise that, because the 1928 Act merely incorporates the provisions of the Longshore Act, construction of the 1928 Act “cannot be separated” from construction of the Longshore Act, and thus Congress intended the construction of the local law and the federal law to be identical.
