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 rates being finalized 
today are effective for calendar year 1998.
Montie R. Deer,
Chairman.
