Exemptions Provisions Relating to Fishing and Aquatic Products


29 CFR 784.129 - ``Marine products''.

  • Section Number: 784.129
  • Section Name: ``Marine products''.

    The marine products which form the basis of the exemption are the 
``fish, shellfish, crustaceas, sponges, seaweeds, or other aquatic forms 
of animal and vegetable life'' mentioned in section 13(a)(5). The 
exemption contemplates aquatic products currently or recently acquired 
and in the form obtained from the sea, since the language of the 
exemption clearly indicates the named operations of first processing, 
canning, or packing must be performed ``at sea'' and ``as an incident to 
or in conjunction with'', fishing operations. Also, such ``marine 
products'' are limited to aquatic forms of ``life.''
