Sec. 201.10  Requirements and procedures.



    (a) Every person operating or desiring to operate as a market agency 

or dealer as defined in section 301 of the Act shall apply for 

registration under the Act. To apply for registration, such persons 

shall file a properly executed application for registration, on forms 

furnished by the Agency, and the bond as required in Sec. Sec. 201.27 

through 201.34.

    (b) Each application for registration shall be filed with the 

regional supervisor for the region in which the applicant proposes to 

operate. If the Administrator has reason to believe that the applicant 

is unfit to engage in the activity for which application has been made, 

a proceeding shall be promptly instituted in which the applicant will be 

afforded opportunity for full hearing in accordance with the rules of 

practice governing such proceedings, for the purpose of showing cause 

why the application for registration should not be denied. In the event 

it is determined that the application should be denied, the applicant 

shall not be precluded, as soon as conditions warrant, from again 

applying for registration.

    (c) Any person regularly employed on salary, or other comparable 

method of compensation, by a packer to buy livestock for such packer 

shall be subject to the registration requirements of the Act and the 

regulations. Such person shall be registered as a dealer to purchase 

livestock for slaughter.

    (d) Every person clearing or desiring to clear the buying operations 

of other registrants shall apply for registration as a market agency 

providing clearing services by filing a properly executed application, 

on forms furnished by the Agency, and the bond as required in Sec. Sec. 

201.27 through 201.34.
