Applicants for a certicate of registration must produce evidence that the vehicles they use for this purpose meet Department of Transportation

requirements. Provided below is a list of major items which should be checked. On the reverse side of this form is a brief summary of the

Department of Transportation standards for each of these items. A check (✓) should be placed adjacent to each item which meets these

minimum standards. In those instances where an item does not meet these standards, necessary repairs must be completed before the

transportation of migrant and seasonal agricultural workers will be authorized. This form must be properly completed and signed, certifying that

the vehicle meets Department of Transportation requirements. This inspection must be performed by an independent inspection company

not afliated with the applicant.

the items listed below need not be checked. However, in the Remarks section, the farm labor contractor must identify the state where the

inspection was performed, list the appropriate state vehicle safety inspection number and license tag number and then sign and date the form.
