SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) 

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 preliminary rate being adopted 

today are effective for calendar year 

2008. 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, 2008. 

Dated: February 28, 2008.

Chairman, National Indian Gaming
