production facilities within the concept of the Act include mines, oil wells
banks, manufacturing, packing and processing plants, filtration, sewage
treatment, electric power and water plants, shipyards, warehouses in which
goods are broken down, packed or handled preparatory to being sent in
interstate commerce, and similar establishments.
-
(2) The repair or maintenance of a covered
production unit is essential for its continued operation and has a close and
immediate tie with the production of goods for commerce
-
(3) On the other hand, the production and
furnishings, within the State, of construction materials, such as sand, gravel
brick and other construction materials produced for general local use, is not
covered even if the producer also supplies such materials to construction
companies which use them within the State in the repair, maintenance or
improvement of facilities for the production of goods for commerce. Employees
of the materialman in such a situation would not have such a close and
immediate tie to the production of goods for commerce as to be considered
"closely related" and "directly essential" to such production.
