III. Certain Findings
Various National Indian Gaming
Commission Regulations
Under the Administrative Procedure
Act, a notice of proposed rulemaking is
not required when an agency, for good
cause, finds that notice and public
comments are impractical, unnecessary,
or contrary to the public interest.
Because the revisions here are technical
in nature and intended solely to update
the NIGC’s current mailing address the
NIGC is publishing a technical
amendment.
The National Indian Gaming
Commission (NIGC) amends various
regulations previously issued. The NIGC
moved its headquarters and needs to
update the address. The agency also
revises two headings by shortening
them.
SUMMARY:

carrier shall report monthly to the
Department on a domestic system basis,

mishandled-baggage reports filed with
the carrier.
(b) For air transportation taking place
on or after January 1, 2018, each
