SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act established
the National Indian Gaming Commission which is charged with, among
other things, regulating class II gaming on Indian lands.
The regulations of the Commission (25 CFR part 500) provide for a
system of fee assessment and payment that is self-administered by the
class II gaming operations. Pursuant to those regulations, the
Commission is required to adopt and communicate assessment rates; the
gaming operations are required to apply those rates to their revenues,
compute the fees to be paid, report the revenues, and remit the fees to
the Commission on a quarterly basis.

The regulations of the Commission and the rate being adopted today
are effective for calendar year 1996. Therefore, all Class II gaming
operations within the jurisdiction of the Commission are required to
self-administer the provisions of these regulations and report and pay
any fees that are due to the Commission before the end of calendar year
1996 (December 31).
Harold A. Monteau,
Chairman, National Indian Gaming Commission.
