SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The lndian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA)

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.
