NATIONAL INDIAN GAMING COMMISSION


Notice of Approved Class III Tribal Gaming Ordinances

AGENCY: National Indian Gaming Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The purpose of this notice is to inform the public of Class 
III tribal gaming ordinances approved by the Chairman of the National 
Indian Gaming Commission.

DATE: This notice is effective upon date of publication in the Federal 
Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Frances Fragua, Office of General 
Counsel at the National Indian Gaming Commission, 202-632-7003, or by 
facsimile at 202-632-7066 (not toll-free numbers).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) 25 
U.S.C. 2701 et seq., established the National Indian Gaming Commission 
(Commission). Section 2710 of IGRA authorizes the Chairman of the 
Commission to approve Class II and Class III tribal gaming ordinances. 
Section 2710(d)(2)(B) of IGRA, as implemented by NIGC regulations, 25 
CFR 522.8, requires the Chairman to publish, in the Federal Register, 
approved Class III tribal gaming ordinances and the approvals thereof.
    IGRA requires all tribal gaming ordinances to contain the same 
requirements concerning tribes' sole proprietary interest and 
responsibility for the gaming activity, use of net revenues, annual 
audits, health and safety, background investigations and licensing of 
key employees and primary management officials. The Commission, 
therefore, believes that publication of each ordinance in the Federal 
Register would be redundant and result in unnecessary cost to the 
Commission.
    Thus, the Commission believes that publishing a notice of approved 
Class III tribal gaming ordinances in the Federal Register, is 
sufficient to meet the requirements of 25 U.S.C. 2710(d)(2)(B). Every 
approved tribal gaming ordinance, every approved ordinance amendment, 
and the approval thereof, are posted on the Commission's website 
(www.nigc.gov) under General Counsel, Gaming Ordinances. Also, the 
Commission will make copies of approved Class III ordinances available 
to the public upon request. Requests can be made in writing to the 
Office of General Counsel, National Indian Gaming Commission, Attn: 
Frances Fragua, C/O Department of the Interior, 1849 C Street NW, MS 
#1621, Washington, DC 20240.
