across public lands in Western Oregon,
including the Coos Bay, Medford,
Northwest Oregon, and Roseburg
Districts and part of the Lakeview
District. On May 12, the RAC will
follow up on the recreation fee proposal
in the Coos Bay District and discuss the
process and next steps for reviewing
Secure Rural School Title II funding
projects. Title II funds support
restoration projects that may not
otherwise have been completed, such as
the improved maintenance of existing
infrastructure, enhancement of forest
ecosystems, and restoration of land
health and water quality. In turn, these
projects create additional employment
opportunities in western Oregon
communities and foster collaborative
relationships between those who use
public lands and those who manage
them. On May 13, the RAC will visit
Upper Table Rocks and the Anderson
Butte Area to review Title II projects
related to recreation improvements,
youth employment, hazardous fuels
reduction, and illegal dumping.
Members of the public are welcome to
attend the field tour and must provide
their own transportation and meals.

RSVP to the BLM Medford District
Office at least 2 weeks in advance of the
field tour (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

with direct or indirect financial interests
in, and management responsibility for,
management contracts. 25 U.S.C. 2710,
2711. The Commission is authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated parts 533, 535, and 537 of
title 25, Code of Federal Regulations, to
implement these statutory requirements.
Section 533.2 requires a tribe or
management contractor to submit a
management contract for review within
60 days of execution, and to submit all
of the items specified in § 533.3. Section
535.1 requires a tribe to submit an
amendment to a management contract
within 30 days of execution, and to
submit all of the items specified in
§ 535.1(c). Section 535.2 requires a tribe
or a management contractor, upon
execution, to submit the assignment by
a management contractor of its rights
under a previously approved
management contract. Section 537.1
requires a management contractor to

financial interest in a management
contract; and any other person with a
direct or indirect financial interest in a
management contract, as otherwise
designated by the Commission. This
collection is mandatory, and the benefit
to the respondents is the approval of
Indian gaming management contracts,
and any amendments thereto.
Respondents: Tribal governing bodies
and management contractors.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
29.
Estimated Annual Responses: 40
(submissions of contracts, contract
amendments, contract assignments, and

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the
regulation of gaming on Indian lands.
Amongst other actions necessary to
carry out the Commission’s statutory
duties, the Act requires Indian tribes
that conduct a class II and/or class III
gaming activity to pay annual fees to the
Commission on the basis of the
assessable gross revenues of each
gaming operation using rates established
by the Commission. 25 U.S.C. 2717. The
Commission is authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 514 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to implement
these statutory requirements.
Section 514.6 requires a tribe to
submit, along with its fee payments,
quarterly fee statements (worksheets)
showing its assessable gross revenues
for the previous fiscal year in order to
support the computation of fees paid by
each gaming operation. Section 514.7
requires a tribe to submit a notice
within 30 days after a gaming operation
changes its fiscal year. Section 514.15
allows a tribe to submit fingerprint
cards to the Commission for processing
by the Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI), along with a fee to cover the
NIGC’s and FBI’s cost to process the
fingerprint cards on behalf of the tribes.
Part of this collection is mandatory and
the other part is voluntary. The required
submission of the fee worksheets allows
the Commission to both set and adjust
fee rates, and to support the
computation of fees paid by each
gaming operation. In addition, the
voluntary submission of fingerprint
cards allows a tribe to conduct
statutorily mandated background
investigations on applicants for key
employee and primary management
official positions.
Respondents: Indian gaming
operations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
698.
Estimated Annual Responses: 60,772.
Estimated Time per Response:
Depending on the type of submission,
the range of time can vary from 0.5
burden hours to 2.3 burden hours for
one item.
Frequency of Response: Quarterly (for
fee worksheets); varies (for fingerprint
cards and fiscal year change notices).
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 33,885.
Estimated Total Non-hour Cost
Burden: $1,649,004.

Title: Minimum Internal Control
Standards for Class II Gaming.
OMB Control Number: 3141–0009.
Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the
regulation of gaming on Indian lands.
Amongst other actions necessary to
carry out the Commission’s statutory
duties, the Act directs the Commission
to monitor class II gaming conducted on
Indian lands on a continuing basis in
order to adequately shield Indian
gaming from organized crime and other
corrupting influences, to ensure that the
Indian tribe is the primary beneficiary of
the gaming operation, and to assure that
gaming is conducted fairly and honestly
by both the operator and players. 25
U.S.C. 2702(2), 2706(b)(1). The
Commission is also authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 543 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to aid it in
monitoring class II gaming on a
continuing basis.
Section 543.3 requires a tribal gaming
regulatory authority (TGRA) to submit
to the Commission a notice requesting
an extension to the deadline (by an
additional six months) to achieve
compliance with the requirements of the
new tier after a gaming operation has
moved from one tier to another. Section
543.5 requires a TGRA to submit a
detailed report after the TGRA has
approved an alternate standard to any of
the NIGC’s minimum internal control
standards, and the report must contain
all of the items specified in § 543.5(a)(2).
Section 543.23(c) requires a tribe to
maintain internal audit reports and to
make such reports available to the
Commission upon request. Section
543.23(d) requires a tribe to submit two
copies of the agreed-upon procedures
(AUP) report within 120 days of the
gaming operation’s fiscal year end. This
collection is mandatory and allows the
NIGC to confirm tribal compliance with
the minimum internal control standards
in the AUP reports.
Respondents: Tribal governing bodies.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
398.
Estimated Annual Responses: 842.
Estimated Time per Response:

Brief Description of Collection: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA or
the Act), 25 U.S.C. 2701, et seq., laid out
a comprehensive framework for the
regulation of gaming on Indian lands.
Amongst other actions necessary to
carry out the Commission’s statutory
duties, the Act requires Indian tribes
that conduct class II and/or class III
gaming to issue ‘‘a separate license . . .
for each place, facility, or location on
Indian lands at which class II [and class
III] gaming is conducted,’’ 25 U.S.C.
2710(b)(1), (d)(1), and to ensure that
‘‘the construction and maintenance of
the gaming facilities, and the operation
of that gaming is conducted in a manner
which adequately protects the
environment and public health and
safety.’’ 25 U.S.C. 2710(b)(2)(E). The
Commission is authorized to
‘‘promulgate such regulations and
guidelines as it deems appropriate to
implement’’ IGRA. 25 U.S.C.
2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 559 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to implement
these requirements.
Section 559.2 requires a tribe to
submit a notice (that a facility license is
under consideration for issuance) at
least 120 days before opening any new
facility on Indian lands where class II
and/or class III gaming will occur, with
the notice containing all of the items
specified in § 559.2(b). Section 559.3
requires a tribe to submit a copy of each
newly issued or renewed facility license
within 30 days of issuance. Section
559.4 requires a tribe to submit an
attestation certifying that by issuing the
facility license, the tribe has determined
that the construction, maintenance, and
operation of that gaming facility is
conducted in a manner that adequately
protects the environment and the public
health and safety. Section 559.5 requires
a tribe to submit a notice within 30 days
if a facility license is terminated or
expires or if a gaming operation closes
or reopens. Section 559.6 requires a
tribe to maintain and provide applicable
and available Indian lands or
environmental and public health and
safety documentation, if requested by
the NIGC. This collection is mandatory
and enables the Commission to perform
its statutory duty by ensuring that tribal
gaming facilities on Indian lands are
properly licensed by the tribes.

U.S.C. 2702(2), 2706(b)(1). The Act
allows Indian tribes to use ‘‘electronic,
computer, or other technologic aids’’ to
conduct class II gaming activities. 25
U.S.C. 2703(7)(A). The Commission is
authorized to ‘‘promulgate such
regulations and guidelines as it deems
appropriate to implement’’ IGRA. 25
U.S.C. 2706(b)(10). The Commission has
promulgated part 547 of title 25, Code
of Federal Regulations, to aid it in
monitoring class II gaming facilities that
are using electronic, computer, or other
technologic aids to conduct class II
gaming.
Section 547.5(a)(2) requires that, for
any grandfathered class II gaming
system made available for use at any
tribal gaming operation, the tribal
gaming regulatory authority (TGRA):
Must retain copies of the gaming
system’s testing laboratory report, the
TGRA’s compliance certificate, and the
TGRA’s approval of its use; and must
maintain records identifying these
grandfathered class II gaming systems
and their components. Section
547.5(b)(2) requires that, for any class II
gaming system generally, the TGRA
must retain a copy of the system’s
testing laboratory report, and maintain
records identifying the system and its
components. As long as a class II
gaming system is available to the public
for play, section 547.5(c)(3) requires a
TGRA to maintain records of any
modification to such gaming system and

emergency hardware and software
modifications to a class II gaming
system (and a copy of the testing
laboratory report) so long as the gaming
system remains available to the public
for play, and must make the records
available to the Commission upon
request. Section 547.5(f) requires a
TGRA to maintain records of its
following determinations: (i) Regarding
a testing laboratory’s (that is owned or
operated or affiliated with a tribe)
independence from the manufacturer
and gaming operator for whom it is
providing the testing, evaluating, and
reporting functions; (ii) regarding a
testing laboratory’s suitability
determination based upon standards no
less stringent than those set out in 25
CFR 533.6(b)(1)(ii) through (v) and

the records available to the Commission
upon request. Section 547.17 requires a
TGRA to submit a detailed report for
each enumerated standard for which the
TGRA approves an alternate standard,

explanation of how the alternate
standard achieves a level of security and
integrity sufficient to accomplish the
purpose of the standard it is to replace;
and (ii) the alternate standard as
