FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cindy Altimus, National Indian Gaming

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 500) provide for a 
system of fee assessment and payment that is self-administered by the 
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 final rates being adopted 
today are effective for calendar years 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995. 
As a result, the Commission shall credit each gaming operation pro-rata 
fees collected in excess of $1,500,000 during those years. The 
Commission will notify each gaming operation as to the amounts of 
overpayments, if any, and therefore the amounts of credit to be taken 
against the next quarterly payment(s) otherwise due.
Montie R. Deer,
Chairman.
