Today the company that owns the ship already made a statement to the effect that they are not liable for the bridge damage (means they blame everyone else) and that any liability will be capped at around $48 Million, assume its the policy limit. Its just a standard statement, does not mean anything.
I expect that the families of the dead workers will be first in line and that $48 Million will be gone in no time at all. But the damages to the bridge will be negotiated quietly between the city, Feds and the ship's owners and contractors, but will not approach anywhere near the cost of rebuilding the bridge.
