RHESA HAWKINS BARKSDALE, Circuit Judge:

For the summary judgment awarded Browning-Ferris, Inc. (BFI), on the basis that overtime paid its day-rate employees is not violative of the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 201-19 (FLSA), primarily at issue is whether 29 C.F.R. § 778.112 (method for computing overtime pay for day-rate employees) is a permissible interpretation of the FLSA.
