Considerations Regarding the
Restriction Against Financing Gaming
Facilities
Section 7871(f)(3)(B)(i) prohibits the
use of Tribal Economic Development
Bonds to finance any portion of a
building in which class II or class III
gaming (as defined in section 4 of the
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act) is
conducted or housed or any other
property actually used in the conduct of
such gaming.
8. Should the prohibition on the use
of Tribal Economic Development Bonds
to finance gaming facilities be modified
to address special needs or unique
circumstances of Indian tribal
governments?
Additional General Comments on
Special Needs or Unique Circumstances
of Indian Tribal Governments
9. Are there additional factors that
should be considered in refining the
statutory scope of tax-exempt bond
financing for Indian tribal governments
to better address the special needs or
unique circumstances of Indian tribal
governments? Such factors might
include, for example, special sources of
revenue, priority government-like
activities, geographic distribution and
legal status of land associated with
Indian tribal governments, or credit
market access considerations.

Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile,
540 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago,
IL 60611. Various subcommittees of the
Board will meet. Each subcommittee
meeting of the Board will be open to the
public the first day for approximately
one half-hour from 8 a.m. until 8:30 a.m.
to cover administrative matters and to
discuss the general status of the
program. The remaining portion of the

portion of each meeting will involve
discussion, examination, reference to,
and oral review of the research
proposals and critiques.
The purpose of the Board is to review
research and development applications
involving the measurement and
evaluation of health care services, the
testing of new methods of health care
delivery and management, and nursing
research. Applications are reviewed for
scientific and technical merit.
Recommendations regarding funding are
submitted to the Chief Research and
Development Officer.
On August 31, the subcommittee on
Nursing Research Initiative will
convene from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and
Career Development Award will
convene from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. On
September 1, the Career Development
Award will continue from 8 a.m. to 1
p.m. and six subcommittees on Health
Services Research (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6)
will convene from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. On

Health Services Research 7 for Pilot
Proposal Review will convene from 8
a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
During the closed portion of each
meeting, discussion and
recommendations will include
qualifications of the personnel
conducting the studies (the disclosure of

unwarranted invasion of personal

would likely compromise significantly
the implementation of proposed agency
action regarding such research projects).
As provided by subsection 10(d) of
Public Law 92–463, as amended by
Public Law 94–409, closing portions of
each meeting is in accordance with 5
