II. Data
Title: Indian Gaming Compliance and
Enforcement.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0001.
Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq., governs
the regulation of gaming on Indian
lands. Although IGRA places primary
responsibility with the tribes for
regulating their Class II gaming
activities, § 2706(b) directs the
Commission to monitor Class II gaming
conducted on Indian lands on a
continuing basis. Amongst other actions
necessary to carry out the Commission’s
statutory duties, the Act authorizes the
Commission to access and inspect all
papers, books, and records relating to
gross revenues of a Class II gaming
operation. The Act also requires tribes
to provide the Commission with annual
independent audits of their gaming
operations, including audits of all
contracts in excess of $25,000. 25 U.S.C.
2710(b)(2)(C), (D); 2710(d)(1)(A)(ii). In
accordance with these statutory
mandates, Commission regulations
require Indian gaming operations to
keep and maintain permanent financial
records, and to submit to the
Commission independent audits of their
gaming operations on an annual basis.
This information collection is
mandatory and allows the Commission
to fulfill its statutory responsibilities
under IGRA to regulate Class II gaming
on Indian lands.
Respondents: Indian tribal gaming
operations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1268.
Estimated Annual Responses: 1268.
Estimated Time per Response:
Depending on the type of information
collection, the range of time can vary
from 20.5 burden hours to 1506.75
burden hours for one item.
Frequency of Responses: 1 per year.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours on Respondents: 1,065,955.5.
Estimated Total Non-hour Cost
Burden: $50,665,016.
Title: Approval of Class II and Class
III Ordinances, Background
Investigations, and Gaming Licenses.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0003.
Brief Description of Collection: The
Act sets standards for the regulation of
gaming on Indian lands, including
requirements for the approval or
disapproval of tribal gaming ordinances.
Section 2705(a)(3) requires the NIGC
Chair to review all Class II and Class III
tribal gaming ordinances. In accordance
with this statutory provision,
Commission regulations require tribes to
submit: (i) A copy of the gaming

PO 00000

Frm 00080

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

ordinance, or amendment thereof, to be
approved, including a copy of the
authorizing resolution by which it was
enacted by the tribal government, and a
request for approval of the ordinance or
resolution; (ii) designation of an agent
for service of process; (iii) a description
of procedures the tribe will employ in
conducting background investigations
on primary management officials
(PMOs) and key employees; (iv) a
description of procedures the tribe will
use to issue licenses to PMOs and key
employees; (v) copies of all gaming
regulations; (vi) a copy of any applicable
tribal-state compact; (vii) a description
of dispute resolution procedures for
disputes arising between the gaming
public and the tribe or management
contractor; and (viii) identification of
the law enforcement agency that will
take fingerprints and a description of
the procedures for conducting criminal
history checks. The Commission also
requires a tribal ordinance to provide
that the tribe will perform background
investigations and issue licenses for
PMOs and key employees according to
requirements that are as stringent as
those contained in Commission
regulations. The NIGC Chair will use the
information collected to approve or
disapprove the ordinance or amendment
thereof.
Commission regulations also require
tribes to perform background
investigations and issue licenses for
PMOs and key employees using certain
information provided by applicants,
such as names, addresses, previous
employment records, previous
relationships with either Indian tribes or
the gaming industry, licensing related to
those relationships, any convictions,
and any other information that a tribe
feels is relevant to the employment of
the individuals being investigated.
Tribes are then required to keep
complete application files. Tribes are
also required to create and keep
investigative reports, and to submit to
the Commission notices of results
(licensing eligibility determinations) on
PMOs and key employees. Tribes must
notify the Commission if they issue or
do not issue licenses to PMOs and key
employees, and if they revoke said
licenses. The Commission uses this
information to review the eligibility and
suitability determinations that tribes
make and advises them if it disagrees
with any particular determination.
These information collections are
mandatory and allow the Commission to
carry out its statutory duties.
Respondents: Indian tribal gaming
operations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,580.

Title: NEPA Compliance.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0006.
Brief Description of Collection: The
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) requires federal agencies to
analyze proposed major federal actions
that significantly affect the quality of the
human environment. The Commission
has identified one type of action that it
undertakes that requires review under
NEPA—approving third-party
management contracts for the operation
of gaming activity under IGRA.
Depending on the nature of the subject
contract and other circumstances,
approval of such management contracts
may be categorically excluded from
NEPA, may require the preparation of
an Environmental Assessment (EA), or
may require the preparation of an
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
In any case, the proponents of a
management contract will be expected
to submit information to the
Commission and assist in the
development of the required NEPA
documentation.
Respondents: Tribal governing bodies,
management companies.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 3.
Estimated Annual Responses: 3.
Estimated Time per Response:
Depending on whether the response is
an EA or an EIS, the range of time can
vary from 2.5 burden hours to 12.0
burden hours for one item.

Hours on Respondents: 26.5.
Estimated Total Non-hour Cost
Burden: $14,846,686.
Title: Issuance of Certificates of SelfRegulation to Tribes for Class II Gaming.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0008.
Brief Description of Collection: The
Act allows any Indian tribe that has
conducted Class II gaming for at least
three years to petition the Commission
for a certificate of self-regulation for its
Class II gaming operation(s). The
Commission will issue the certificate if
it determines that the tribe has
conducted its gaming activities in a
manner that has: Resulted in an
effective and honest accounting of all
revenues; a reputation for safe, fair, and
honest operation of the gaming

activities; and an enterprise free of
evidence of criminal or dishonest
activity. The tribe must also have
adopted and implemented proper
accounting, licensing, and enforcement
systems, and conducted the gaming
operation on a fiscally or economically
sound basis. Commission regulations
require a tribe interested in receiving a
certificate to file with the Commission
a petition generally describing the
tribe’s gaming operations, its regulatory
process, its uses of net gaming revenue,
and its accounting and recordkeeping
systems. The tribe must also provide
copies of various documents in support
of the petition. Tribes who have been
issued a certificate of self-regulation are
required to submit to the Commission
certain information on an annual basis,
including information that establishes
that the tribe continuously meets the
regulatory eligibility and approval
requirements and supporting
documentation that explains how tribal
gaming revenues were used in
accordance with the requirements in 25
U.S.C. 2710(b)(2)(B). Submission of the
petition and supporting documentation
is voluntary. The Commission will use
the information submitted by the tribe
in determining whether to issue the
certificate of self-regulation. Once a
certificate of self-regulation has been
issued, the submission of certain other
information is mandatory.
Respondents: Tribal governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 8.
Estimated Annual Responses: 64.

Depending on the information
collection, the range of time can vary
