                              Introductory


    This part 793 constitutes the official interpretative bulletin of 
the Department of Labor with respect to the meaning and application of 
section 13(b)(9) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended. 
This section provides an exemption from the overtime pay provisions of 
the Act for certain employees employed by certain small market radio and 
television stations. This exemption was added to the Act by the 1961 
amendments. It is the purpose of this bulletin to make available in one 
place the interpretations of the provisions in section 13(b) (9) which 
will guide the Secretary of Labor and the Administrator in the 
performance of their duties under the Act unless and until they are 
otherwise directed by authoritative decisions of the courts or conclude, 
upon re-examination of an interpretation, that it is incorrect.
