Once a payment is accepted, a settlement or compromise of a salvage claim under section 7802 or 7803 is final. It can't be reopened later, no matter what other law might say.

Once the United States accepts payment on a claim that was settled or compromised under section 7802 or 7803, that settlement is final and can't be revisited — even if some other law might otherwise allow it.
