IPSWICH SHELLFISH CO., INC.,
Respondent
DECISION AND ORDER APPROVING CONSENT FINDINGS
This matter arises under Section 16(e) of the Fair Labor
Standards Act ("the Act") as amended (29 U.S.C. § 216(e)), and
the regulations issued thereunder (29 C.F.R. Parts 578 and 580),
providing for a civil money penalty for repeated or willful
violations of the overtime provisions of §§ 7 and
15(a)(2) of the Act.
In accordance with the Act and the regulations, the Department
of Labor imposed a civil money penalty in the amount of $17,000.00,
to which Respondent timely excepted. The case was referred to the
Office of Administrative Law Judges on March 22, 1994.
The parties have negotiated a settlement in this matter and
have submitted executed consent findings. Having reviewed the
administrative file and the consent findings, I find that the
Consent Findings are appropriate. Accordingly, IT IS
ORDERED that the stipulations, agreements, terms and
conditions contained therein, which are attached hereto, are
ACCEPTED and shall have the same force and effect as
if they were individually and specifically set forth in the body of
this ORDER. Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. § 18.9(b),
the attached consent findings, incorporated herein, shall
constitute my findings of fact and conclusions of law in this
matter.
