PART 784_PROVISIONS OF THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT APPLICABLE TO FISHING 
AND OPERATIONS ON AQUATIC PRODUCTS--Table of Contents
 
Subpart B_Exemptions Provisions Relating to Fishing and Aquatic Products
 
Sec. 784.109  Manufacture of supplies for named operations is not exempt.

    Employment in the manufacture of supplies for the named operations 
is not employment in the named operations on aquatic forms of life. 
Thus, the exemption is not applicable to the manufacture of boxes, 
barrels, or ice by a seafood processor for packing or shipping its 
seafood products or for use of the ice in its fishing vessels. These 
operations, when performed by an independent manufacturer, would 
likewise not be exempt (Dize v. Maddix, 144 F. 284 (C.A. 4), affirmed 
324 U.S. 667, and approved on this point in Farmers' Reservoir Co. v. 
McComb, 337 U.S. 755).
