In addition to meeting the suitability requirements provided in R.S. 27:28, no person shall be issued a license to conduct gaming operations unless the board finds that:

(2) The proposed financing of the riverboat and the gaming operations is adequate for the nature of the proposed operation and from a source suitable and acceptable to the division.
(3) The applicant must demonstrate a proven ability to operate a vessel of comparable size and capacity and of comparable complexity to a riverboat so as to ensure the safety of its passengers. The applicant must demonstrate that each employee involved with navigation and passenger safety holds United States Coast Guard approved certification for lifeboat, firefighting, and first aid.
(4) The applicant must submit a detailed plan of design of the riverboat in its application for a riverboat gaming license.
