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 and 25 CFR part 

518), 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 annual rate 

being adopted today are effective for calendar year 2002. 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, 

2002. 

Montie E. Deer, 

Chairman, IJational Indian Gaming Commission.
