Sec. 1842. Confirmation of registration
No person shall utilize the services of any farm labor contractor to
supply any migrant or seasonal agricultural worker unless the person
first takes reasonable steps to determine that the farm labor contractor
possesses a certificate of registration which is valid and which
authorizes the activity for which the contractor is utilized. In making
that determination, the person may rely upon either possession of a
certificate of registration, or confirmation of such registration by the
Department of Labor. The Secretary shall maintain a central public
registry of all persons issued a certificate of registration.
