will enhance competition between
`
Lumiere and River City—which
Pinnacle tries to minimize today. The
geographic positioning of the casinos
`
(i.e., the fact that Lumiere is closer to
Ameristar St. Charles and River City
than Ameristar St. Charles and River
City are to each other) and the
quantitative and qualitative evidence
gathered during the investigation
support the conclusion that competition
will be enhanced by the divestiture of
`
Lumiere notwithstanding the
competition of Ameristar and River
City.
`
If Pinnacle does not divest Lumiere to
a Commission-approved acquirer within
six months, the Consent Order provides
that a divestiture trustee may be
`
appointed to sell Lumiere, and includes
a crown-jewel provision requiring the
divestiture trustee to divest either
`
Lumiere or the Ameristar St. Charles
casino. Until the completion of the
divestiture, Pinnacle is required to abide
by the Order to Hold Separate and
Maintain Assets, which requires
`
Pinnacle to hold Lumiere separate and
maintain its viability, marketability, and
`
competitiveness until the Lumiere
divestiture is completed. The proposed
Consent Order appoints a Hold Separate
`
Monitor to manage Lumiere’s operations
pending the divestiture.
Additionally, the proposed Consent
Order requires Pinnacle, upon request
by the acquirer and subject to prior
approval of the Commission, to provide
transitional services to the approved
acquirer for one year, as needed, to
assist the acquirer with the transfer of
necessary administrative support
services. Finally, the proposed Consent
Order contains standard terms regarding
the acquirer’s access to employees,
protection of Material Confidential
Information, and compliance-reporting
requirements, among other things.
B. Lake Charles
In Lake Charles, the proposed Consent
Order remedies the likely
anticompetitive effects of the proposed
acquisition by requiring Pinnacle to
divest all of the assets associated with
Ameristar’s development and
construction of Mojito Pointe to a
Commission-approved buyer within six
months. The divestiture assets include
the Mojito Pointe real property, licenses
and permits, equipment, customer
databases, intellectual property,
contracts, books and records, including
construction documents, and other
assets necessary for a Commissionapproved acquirer to independently and
effectively build, open, and operate
Mojito Pointe. The proposed Consent
Order would preserve five independent

casino operators in Lake Charles and
ensure that the owner of the Mojito
Pointe assets has the incentive to
expedite construction of Mojito Pointe
and to compete vigorously with
Pinnacle’s L’Auberge casino.
Under the proposed Consent Order,
the potential acquirer of Mojito Pointe is
subject to prior approval by the
Commission. If Pinnacle is unable to
find a Commission-approved acquirer
for Mojito Pointe within six months, the
Consent Order provides for the
appointment of a divestiture trustee and
includes a crown-jewel provision that
permits the divestiture trustee to divest
either Mojito Pointe or Pinnacle’s
L’Auberge casino. Additionally, the
proposed Consent Order requires
Pinnacle, upon request by the acquirer
and subject to prior approval of the
Commission, to provide transitional
services to the approved acquirer for
one year, as needed, to assist the
acquirer with the transfer of necessary
administrative support services. The
proposed Consent Order also contains
standard terms regarding the acquirer’s
access to employees, protection of
Material Confidential Information, and
compliance-reporting requirements,
among other things.
The Hold Separate Order requires
Pinnacle to hold Mojito Pointe separate
until the Mojito Pointe divestiture is
completed. Pinnacle is also required to
maintain the economic viability,
marketability, and competitiveness of
Mojito Pointe and L’Auberge, the
crown-jewel asset. The proposed
Consent Order appoints a Hold Separate
Monitor to oversee the development and
construction of Mojito Pointe prior to
divestiture.

the other agencies participating in the
matching programs;
2. Obtain the Data Integrity Board
approval of the match agreements;
3. Furnish detailed reports about
matching programs to Congress and
OMB;
4. Notify applicants and beneficiaries
that the records are subject to matching;
and,
5. Verify match findings before
reducing, suspending, terminating, or
denying an individual’s benefits or

Determinations.
Purpose(s) of the Matching Program:
The purpose of the Computer Matching
Agreement is to establish the terms,
conditions, safeguards, and procedures
under which USCIS will provide

CMS will access USCIS data needed to
make Eligibility Determinations in its
capacity as a Federally-facilitated
Exchange, and Administering Entities

Programs and Eligibility Determinations
for Exemptions. Specifically, USCIS will
provide CMS with electronic access to
immigrant, nonimmigrant, and

Information System. Access to this
information will assist with verification
whether an applicant is lawfully
present, a qualified non-citizen, a

whether the 5 year bar applies and has
been met in order to determine
eligibility for the previously mentioned
programs.

Determination That LIDEX

(fluocinonide) Cream and Nine Other
Drug Products Were Not Withdrawn

AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) has determined
that the drug products listed in this
document were not withdrawn from
sale for reasons of safety or
effectiveness. This determination means
that FDA will not begin procedures to
withdraw approval of abbreviated new
drug applications (ANDAs) that refer to
these drug products, and it will allow
FDA to continue to approve ANDAs that
refer to the products as long as they
meet relevant legal and regulatory
requirements.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1984,
Congress enacted the Drug Price
Competition and Patent Term
Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. L. 98–417)
(the 1984 amendments), which
authorized the approval of duplicate
versions of drug products approved
under an ANDA procedure. ANDA
sponsors must, with certain exceptions,
show that the drug for which they are
seeking approval contains the same
active ingredient in the same strength
and dosage form as the ‘‘listed drug,’’
which is a version of the drug that was
previously approved. Sponsors of
ANDAs do not have to repeat the
extensive clinical testing otherwise
necessary to gain approval of a new
drug application (NDA).
The 1984 amendments include what
is now section 505(j)(7) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.
