What would you toss into the harbor? The head ref?
Seriously, Chris is correct above: your event's FIRST Technical Advisor (FTA) is the on-site reference for all matters related to actions by key volunteers. These include the Head Referee, the Lead Robot Inspector, the Field Supervisor, the MC, the Game Announcer, the Lead Scorekeeper, the Lead Queuer, the Pit Administration Supervisor, and the Lead Safety Advisor.

So a problem with a key volunteer's actions should be dealt with by the Volunteer Coordinator (acting for the regional planning committee) with the advice of the FTA. And as Chris points out, in extreme cases FIRST headquarters staff or a GDC member can step in to provide resolution.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
