SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act established
the National Indian Gaming Commission which is charged with, among
other things, regulating gaming on Indian lands.
The regulations of the Commission (25 CFR part 514), as amended,
provide for a system of fee assessment and payment that is self-
administered by 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 1999. Therefore, all 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 by March 31, 1999.
Montie R. Deer,
Chairman, National Indian Gaming Commission.
