sion. A copy of the letter referring the case to a United States At-

shall include a standard paragraph to the effect that the Regional At-
torney of the Department of Labor (citing address of appropriate region
as per listing attached) is familiar with these labor standards stat-
utes and is available for assistance in the processing of this case.

the direction of the United States Attorney involved. Further admin-
istrative processing of such cases by the agency and this Department
