SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The EVerify Program is a free employment

determine the employment eligibility of
new hires. The E-Verify Program allows
participating employers to electronically
confirm the employment eligibility of
newly hired employees to help maintain
a stable and legal workforce.
An E-Verify Designated Agent is a
liaison between E-Verify and employers
who choose to outsource submission of
employment eligibility verification
queries for newly hired employees. EVerify Designated Agents conduct the
verification process for other employers
or clients. An E-Verify Designated Agent
must register online and sign a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
with SSA and DHS. Once the MOU is
approved, the E-Verify Designated
Agent can then begin registering
employers and clients who have
designated it to perform their
verification services.
The program design for Designated
Agents has changed very little over the
past several years. Accordingly, USCIS
plans to review the Designated Agent
process to assess how Designated
Agents provide this service to their
clients. The purpose of this notice is to
request that Designated Agents, their
clients, or others with Designated Agent
experience provide their comments or
suggestions for improving the
Designated Agent process.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The E-Verify Program has been
approved by the Office of Management
and Budget under the Paperwork
Reduction Act. The approved OMB
Control Number is 1615–0092.

numbers).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA)
25 U.S.C. 2701 et seq., established the
National Indian Gaming Commission
(Commission). Section 2710 of the IGRA
authorizes the Chairman of the
Commission to approve class II and
class III tribal gaming ordinances.
Section 2710(d)(2)(B) of the IGRA, as
implemented by 25 CFR 522.8, requires
the Commission to publish, in the
Federal Register, approved class III
gaming ordinances and the approvals
thereof.
The Commission believes that
publishing a periodic notice of
approved class II or III gaming
ordinances in the Federal Register,
along with publishing on the
Commission’s Web site the full text of
each ordinance and any approved
amendments, is sufficient to meet the
requirements of 25 U.S.C. Section
2710(d)(2)(B) and provide the public
with adequate notice of all gaming
ordinance approvals. Every approved
gaming ordinance, every approved
ordinance amendment, and the
approvals thereof, are posted on the
Commission’s Web site (https://
www.nigc.gov) under Reading Room,
Gaming Ordinances. Also, the
Commission will make copies of
approved ordinances available to the
public upon request. Requests can be
made in writing to the Office of General
Counsel, National Indian Gaming
Commission, Attn: Frances Fragua, 1441
L Street, NW., Suite 9100, Washington,
DC 20005.
The following constitutes a
consolidated list of all Tribes for which
the Chairman has approved tribal
gaming ordinances authorizing class II
or III gaming.
