Sec. 655.92  Authority of the Regional Administrator.

    Under this subpart, the accepting for consideration and the making 
of temporary alien agricultural labor certification determinations are

and Training Administration region, who, in turn, may delegate this 
responsibility to a designated staff member. The Director of the United 
States Employment Service, however, may direct that certain types of 
applications or certain applications shall be handled by, and the 
determinations made by USES in Washington, DC. In those cases, the RA 
will informally advise the employer or agent of the name of the official 
who will make determinations with respect to the application.
